Dancing experience
This course is aimed at dancers who want to make their dancing lighter and more fluid.
You dance regularly, know the basics and can link figures together. At milongas, you move within the ronda and find your rhythm even when the dance floor is full. Enjoying tango and taking pleasure in it is important to you; you’re open to solid foundational work and clear leading and following.
Fausto Carpino and Stephanie Fesneau are a young and likeable dance couple. They live in Syracuse, Sicily.
Their dancing is inspiring and rhythmically precise, their movements fluid and beautiful. In their classes, they teach with great personal commitment, joy and charm.

Hall: The classes and milongas take place in the neighbouring hall, which covers an area of 200 square metres and boasts a magnificent view (with a sprung wooden floor).
Thanks to a ceiling cooling system, the hall can be kept at a comfortable temperature even when it’s hot outside.
Hotel rooms
► The rooms at the Schwanen are elegantly panelled in silver fir and furnished with simple yet cosy, modern furniture crafted by local Bregenz artisans. They vary in size and location:
► The Schwanen I rooms are approximately 30 square metres in size, whilst the Schwanen II rooms are approximately 22–24 square metres. Both room types offer views towards the Kanisfluh and the Hirschberg, or are designed as spacious corner rooms (Schwanen I).
The Schwanen III rooms face the road, which has little traffic at night as Bizau lies in a side valley.
Rooms are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis upon receipt of the booking.
There is also the option of staying in a holiday flat or at the Gasthof Taube in Bizau:
► Holiday flat
In addition to accommodation at the Hotel Schwanen, this trip offers the option of booking well-appointed holiday flats. These are located approximately a 5-minute walk from the Hotel Schwanen. The flats have one bedroom and a kitchen with a cosy living area. Meals – breakfast and dinner – are taken together with the group at the Hotel Schwanen.
► Gasthof Taube
The Gasthof Taube is a cosy, family-run hotel, about a 2-minute walk from the Schwanen. The rooms are furnished in a slightly simpler style. Breakfast and dinner are also taken together with the group at the Hotel Schwanen.
