Hi all,
As we have announced before, Eric JEURISSEN (www.elcorte.com) will be
visiting us in Durham
this September. Durham will be his second and only other stop during his
trip to US this fall.
He'll be teaching workshops, DJ one of our milongas and be a part of our
regional tango community in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic during the
weekend of Sept. 9-11.
We would be happy to share this unique experience with the tango
enthusiasts from all over our region.
About Eric and El Corte:
Eric studied dance education at the Rotterdam conservatory till 1984.
After then he decided to specialize in Argentine tango. He began teaching
argentine tango in 1987, inspired by Pepito Avellaneda, who considered him
being his 'tango' son. In 1987 he founded Tango El Corte, a tango center, a
great "tango commune" in the Dutch city of Nijmegen.
Over the last 18 years El Corte's fame spread out over the globe.
Attracting 25000 visitors a year it became one of the leading tango centers
in the world. Eric is still running El Corte with a lot of passion and with
a staff of 10 teachers.
During 3 weekends a month and during off season he travels the world. From
Alaska to China, from Finland to South Africa... The flying dutchman seems
to have a lot of energy.
Eric loves to work with mixed level groups and is specially keen on
transmitting the aspect of musical sensitivity and connection between
partners for tango dancers.
