Julio Balmeceda & Corina de la Rosa
Seattle Workshop May 21st-23rd
Julio and Corina are highly respected teachers in Buenos Aires. They are
among the teachers of the social tango dancers. Julio studied tango from his
father, the legendary Miguel Balmaceda, who taught many famous tango
dancers. Since 1991, Julio has taught tango at the most prestigious tango
salons in Buenos Aires: Canning, Grisel, El Parakultural, Almagro, and La
Galeria del tango. Corina started dancing at the age of 6. She graduated
from the National Institute of Dance in Argentina. When she was 23, she
dedicated herself to tango and learned the secrets of its culture by dancing
with the best old milonguero. Julio and Corina met in 1996 and since then,
they have been working together in Buenos Aires and give workshops to teach
the essence of tango in different tango festivals in Europe, Asia, and the
USA.
As instructors, they are warm, down to earth, and funny. Julio & Corina's
classes are clear, fun, informative, well thought out, and well presented.
As dancers, their steps, figures and posture can be characterized by
'elegant, gentle, and round.' Together, they transmit precision and beauty
in all of their movements. As performers, they have performed with the
famous Orchestra COLOR TANGO. In 1998, they joined the cast of the famous
Broadway tango show FOREVER TANGO.
