TANGO JUEVES HAS A NEW STARTING TIME AND SOME SPECIAL GUESTS Jueves, the regular Thursday night milonga at the Dulaine Dance Center, is now starting one-half hour earlier, at 9:00pm instead of 9:30pm. Our schedule will now be as follows: 9:00-9:30pm-warm-up; 9:30-10:00pm-intermediate/advanced lesson; 10:00pm-1:00am-dancing. We are still serving the same delicious appetizers and refreshments, and our dance floor is still one of the best in town.
This Thursday, July 15th, we will be welcoming two special guests from Argentina, Ricardo El Pibe Sarandi and Elina Roldan, for a special exhibition performance. Ricardo El Pibe Sarandi was born in 1942 and didn't dance his first tango until he was 13 years old. In those days there were no teachers or schools of tango, and dancers learned from each other. Today, at age 62, he is teaching his own inimitable style to students throughout the world. Elina's dance roots are in classical Spanish dance, flamenco and modern dance. She has studied tango with teachers such as Gustavo Naveira, Pepito Avellaneda, Pupy Castello, Graciela Gonzalez, and has appeared in stage, television, and film productions. Elina has been teaching since 1989 in Buenos Aires and throughout the world. Ricardo's smooth milonguero style and Elina's magical feet are a joy to watch! Together they are unforgettable.
