For the past 8 years she has devoted her love of dance to Argentine Tango becoming one of San Francisco's most respected dancers and teachers. She has been featured locally on KVTU's Segment 2 Report with Bob MacKenzie and KPIX/Channel 5 Evening Magazine with Jonathan Karsh Along with Victor Meneses, Christy hosts the popular Mariposa Argentine Tango Club. This is San Francisco's longest running milonga, now in its 8th year, and is held every Thursday evening at the Verdi Club. As the Creator and Director of the Academia de Tango Argentino at San Francisco's popular Metronome Ballroom she hosts guest teachers from all over the world including well known maestros from Buenos Aires. She also teaches group and private classes, workshops and hosts a monthly milonga. The Metronome Ballroom hosts Christy's LiberTango Dancers. The group and its individual couples perform for special events and with local musicians Tango No. 9 and MonTango in their concert performances. Sharing her passion for Argentine Tango with aspiring tangueros is what Christy does best. Her name appears on the roster of several annual Argentine Tango events such as the Portland Tangofest, the Tango at Sea Cruise and the Las Vegas Tango 3-day intensive for which she is also a co-producer. She has ventured as far away as Istanbul, Turkey where she taught at the first Istanbul Tango Festival in 2001. She and co-organizer Chelsa Eng, offer Argentine Tango students an opportunity to join them in their annual March pilgrimage to the Congresso International de Tango Argentino (International Tango Congress) in Buenos Aires. Students not only have the opportunity to experience the dance, but also study and explore the culture that created tango. *********************************************** APRIL TEACHERS: First Friday: Christy Cote Third Friday: Glenn Corteza ********************************************** COMING IN MAY: First Friday class with Count Glover ******************************************** 1st and 3rd Fridays of the month, milonga in Los Altos!
