Join us every other Sunday at Parque Las Heras in Palermo for Cultural Crossroads in the Park, a fun and inclusive meetup led by Dr. Zachary McKinley, a cultural researcher from the USA. Kicking off at 3:00 pm with 30 minutes of casual networking, this gathering invites you to grab a coffee or mate beforehand and connect with fellow participants. At 3:30, Dr. McKinley will guide a 1.5-hour collaborative group discussion exploring cultural dimensions and their profound influence on thoughts, behaviors, perceptions, and communication styles across borders. Whether you're a local, an expat, or just curious about the richness of cultural diversity, this event is your opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations and broaden your understanding of the world. All are welcome; however, **the conversation will be entirely in English**, as the host does not speak fluent Spanish. Note: To stay safe and hydrated, please bring bug spray, sunscreen/hat, and something to drink (such as mate/coffee/tea/etc.). A blanket to sit on is recommended but not required.

🇪🇸Español Abajo 👇 Did you move to a new country and have to reinvent yourself? Building friendships from scratch, navigating a new language, missing home — yet longing to belong? Argentine Tango was born from exactly these stories. In Buenos Aires, generations of newcomers found connection in an unfamiliar land — through an improvised embrace, without fixed rules, simply listening and responding to one another. 🔹 **What to expect?** ✔️ Discover tango as a social language — not just a dance ✔️ Playful, guided partner exercises to explore connection through movement ✔️ The embrace, the walk, and the subtle dialogue that arises between two bodies ✔️ No pressure with complicated sequences - two left feet are welcome! 📍 **Where?** "La Casona de los Bellos Aires" in Rawson 394. We’ll walk together from Tienda del Cafe Italiano to the tango space (easy to combine with the Culture Shock Therapy social gathering before) 💰 **How much?** 10.000$ 🙋🏼‍♀️ **Who?** Guided by Valerie Kattenfeld — tango dancer and teacher, passionate about creating warm, clear, and authentic spaces for connection through dance. 👟 **What to bring?** Comfortable clothes and shoes you can move in (sneakers or sandals you can close. No Flip Flops. Also socks are ok). You do not need to come with a partner. ☕ **Before?** Join our Culture Shock Therapy social meetup at Tienda de Café and come with us to the class! Step into a living piece of Buenos Aires — and maybe recognize a part of your own story in the embrace. ✨ See you on the dance floor! FOLLOW US INSTAGRAM: @CULTURE.SHOCKTHERAPY / @valeriekattenfeld [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy/) *** ¿Te mudaste a otro país y tuviste que reinventarte? ¿Construir amistades desde cero, manejarte en otro idioma, extrañar tu hogar — y al mismo tiempo sentir el deseo de pertenecer? El Tango Argentino nació exactamente de esas historias. En Buenos Aires, generaciones de recién llegados encontraron conexión en una tierra desconocida — a través de un abrazo improvisado, sin reglas fijas, simplemente escuchando y respondiéndose mutuamente. 🔹 **¿Qué podés esperar?** ✔️ Descubrir el tango como un lenguaje social — no solo como un baile ✔️ Ejercicios lúdicos y guiados en pareja para explorar la conexión a través del movimiento ✔️ El abrazo, la caminata y el diálogo sutil que surge entre dos cuerpos ✔️ Sin presión ni secuencias complicadas — ¡bienvenidas las personas con dos pies izquierdos! 📍 **¿Dónde?** "La Casona de los Bellos Aires" in Rawson 394. Caminaremos juntas/os desde Tienda del Cafe Italiano hasta el espacio de la clase (fácil de combinar con el encuentro social previo de Culture Shock Therapy). 💰 **¿Cuánto?** 10.000$ 🙋🏼‍♀️ **¿Quién?** Guiado por Valerie Kattenfeld — bailarina y profesora de tango, apasionada por crear espacios cálidos, claros y auténticos de conexión a través de la danza. 👟 **¿Qué traer?** Ropa cómoda y calzado con el que puedas moverte (zapatillas o sandalias que se puedan cerrar. No ojotas. También podés venir en medias). No necesitás venir en pareja. ☕ **¿Antes?** Sumate al encuentro social de Culture Shock Therapy en Tienda de Café y venite con nosotras/os a la clase. Entrá en una pieza viva de Buenos Aires — y quizás reconozcas una parte de tu propia historia en el abrazo. ✨ ¡Nos vemos en la pista! **SEGUINOS** **INSTAGRAM: @CULTURE.SHOCKTHERAPY / @valeriekattenfeld** [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/culture.shocktherapy/)
