Please note that Omar Vega and partner, Mariana Ojeda are available for tango workshops in the US this Winter, following their February 4-week visit to Denver.
- February 1 - 28, Denver - March ............. Omar Vega is master of the highly rhythmic "Milonga Traspie". The Milonga Traspie is highly popular in Buenos Aires, but it is not so common in the US. It is characterized by tricky triple-time steps, and is very sexy in the close-embrace. Milongas with a condombe beat (for example, Azabache or Milonga Brava) were designed for traspie! I have brought Omar to Denver every year for the past 4 years to teach month-long workshops in the Milonga. This has had a profound effect on the way local dancers do milonga. Please see the flyer for Omar & Mariana's visit to Denver: - http://www.tango.org/dance/OmarWeb.pdf If you can't catch Omar in your city: Note that Omar is doing a weekend workshop in Denver over Valentines/President's Day weekend. This will be a "Triple Milonga Weekend," and we are welcoming a number of visitors from out of town. -- Tom Stermitz 2612 Clermont St Denver, CO 80207 home: 303-388-2560 cell: 303-725-5963
