Omar Vega Returns to Colorado
GREETINGS ALLl! I am very pleased to announce that Omar Vega will return to Colorado to teach a very special set of classes aimed at the beginner and intermediate dancer. This is a rare opportunity for dancers who are newer to our community, and those who wish to deepen their understanding of the rhythmic close embrace tango and milonga, to study with an Argentine master teacher. Because these classes are aimed at newer dancers who wish to continue their studies and deepen their appreciation for this unique partner dance, we are offering very special pricing! See the prices listed below! Bring all your friends! Omar has been one of the strongest creative forces in the resurgence of tango in Buenos Aires over the past ten years. Omar bases his dance in "natural, sensual movement." He is internationally famous for his extremely rhythmic style of dancing milonga. He is a master of improvisation, and is especially appreciated for his musical interpretation. He has taught world-wide and is know as a careful and charismatic teacher.

Cost: $18 each. $7 discount for taking all four Pearl Street classes. Thursday Classes are filling quickly. Preregistration is encouraged to reserve a space. Tom and I are turning over our regular Thursday classes to Omar during his stay. These students have been working at least six weeks and are learning extremely quickly. They have already conquered the basic salon material with some understanding of rhythmic and close embrace elements. The students are moving towards Intermediate level, although the classes are still appropriate for new students. Because Tom and I believe strongly in Omar's work, we have invited Omar to teach these classes. We really value Omar's ability to teach a musical, connected social dance. We believe that this establishes a basis for whatever type of tango styling you may choose to add later. Students who are already preregistered for this session will not be charged extra. Other students may add into these classes at a price far below that charged by most master teachers. The Saturday classes are also a good deal. This is a very special opportunity to study with an exceptional dancer and great teacher. ADDITIONAL WORKSHOPS: Stay tuned for more announcements including a special weekend workshop in Aspen! PRIVATE LESSONS: Omar will also be available for private lessons. I could translate some of these lessons if needed. Please contact me if you have any questions. Great tangos to all, Lisa Battan mail to: [email protected] cell: (720) 218-2599
