Brooke Burdett, who is known for her balanced and accessible approach to tango, will be teaching workshops in the United States and Canada from May 25 - July 25 of 2001. (Her itinerary is below). Brooke brings a unique blend of North American sensibilities to a deep personal understanding of the tango from her four years of living in Buenos Aires.
A life-long dancer, Brooke's effort and enthusiasm helped initiate the Denver tango community in the mid-1990s. She moved to Buenos Aires in early 1997 to deepen her understanding of the dance and the culture, and has studied with many of the older generation's tango masters and the younger generation's most prominent innovators. An expert leader and follower, Brooke teaches and performs in Buenos Aires, the United States and Canada, and she appears in instructional videos with Daniel Trenner and with Mariano "Chicho" Frumboli. Her approach centers around the art of improvisation and the development of core elements such as structure, technique and musical interpretation. She is an incredibly clear teacher with unique insight!
