YULETIDE TANGO IN TAOS, NEW MEXICO
DECEMBER 13-16, 2002
Ancestors of the Taos Indians lived in the Taos valley long before
Columbus discovered America and hundreds of years before Europe emerged from
the Dark Ages. At 7,000 feet, the mountains and pueblo structures appeared
much as they do today when the first Spanish explorers arrived in Northern
New Mexico in 1540 and believed that the Pueblo was one of the fabled
goldencities of Cibola.
Now an artist enclave, Taos San Geronimo Lodge will host a weekend of
tango. While Taos artisans paint their Pueblo, we ll be painting the dance
floor. Daily classes, milongas, andentertainment provide the structure of
your visit; the magic of the mountains inspires you to spend some time
skiing, absorbing local artist color, or traveling to the past by visiting
the centuries-old Pueblo. Listen to storyteller Roberta Courtneys'
monologues and stories from Taos history, and musician Dan Ingroff, who plays
many different ethnic instruments and displays them all.
$345 includes three nights (per person, double
occupancy) with breakfast and two nights of
entertainment, classes, and milongas. Also included
are three tango/movement classes with Alexander Garcia,
doing his unique combination of Pilates and Tango
movements
$430 includes the above plus the ski package, with
lift tickets and hotel-ski area transportation (we
made lots of room in the schedule)
$100 extra for a single room all three nights.
