Hello Tangueros, Have you been to SAN MIGUEL DE ALLENDE, Mexico? It is one of the most beautiful and intriguing towns you will see in Mexico. Yes, many foreigners have flocked there, and continue to do so, but the historical, architectural, and artistic beauty has not decreased at all. I say this from experience, having grown up partially in San Miguel, and having returned there many years later to reside.
After bringing the first Argentine workshops and teachers to San Miguel six years ago, I have sponsored many Exotic Tango Vacations there, and also the first tango festival, INTERNATIONAL TANGO FIESTA, in San Miguel in 2003. The restaurants and gorgeous historical buildings we have for milongas, the grace of the flowering plants and the brilliance of color in the people, the town, and the local culture are the most stunning entrance to a magical trip, and a perfect vacation! Please note that Aug. 5 is the date to return this form to me, as a courtesy. If you know that you would like to indulge in this marvelous ³trip of grace,² it is a smoother transition for me to pre-register the majority of participants. Questions? Let me know. Thanks! GRACIAS! Christina Johnson, President/Exotic Tango Vacations, LLC See: www.beyondtango.com AMIGOS MEXICANOS, LES ENVIO DESPUES ESTE EMAIL EN ESPANOL, SI LO REQUIEREN! (I WILL BE SENDING THIS IN SPANISH AS WELL. PLEASE REQUEST A TRANSLATION FOR FRIENDS WHO NEED IT.) Dear Friends, I have named this event, TANGO GRACIA as it is over Thanksgiving, Nov. 21-28. What a wonderful way to come together, with thanks, over one of our great passions! PAULO ARAUJO will be our teacher! Paulo¹s reputation is one of a fantastic teacher, who sacrifices pretension to create precious and intimate understanding of tango movement and technique. He is playful, surprising, and is cresting a wave of popularity from California, to Brazil, Argentina, eastern Europe, and Israel. He is very creative, and uses new perceptions, games, and new vocabulary to have insight into tango, the dance. Paulo has a very busy schedule, and we are fortunate to be able to have him teach in San Miguel.
