Practica (event)

A práctica (a practice session) is an informal event where Argentine tango, Salsa or Bachata is danced.

Prácticas are often held regularly (often weekly), in a dance studio or exercise space, ideally with full-length mirrors so the dancers can observe themselves.

The main focus of a práctica is on practicing the dance, techniques, and improvisation.

Participants may practise alone, focussing on their own conditioning, or in pairs, doing the usual leading-following sequences.

Some organisers may combine the práctica and milonga into one event and call it práctilonga.
