Ruben Milonga Teaching Visit (Some dates have changed!) Ruben Milonga is a master of traditional tango forms having grown up in BA, dancing in the neighborhoods since 1956. He is a world known teacher and historian of both tango dance and music. He was flown both to the N.Y. and Zurich Argentine embassies to present one lecture. His knowledge is vast, his embodiment of the tango deeply passionate. Ruben's classes will focus on musicality and the historical context of dance styles.
