ANGEL & ROSA: Audiences throughout the U.S., South America and Europe have cheered the intensity and authenticity that is the hallmark of Angel and Rosa's work. They had been worlds apart...literally. But in 1994 Angel Garcia, from Puebla, Mexico, met Rosa Collantes, from Peru. Together in New York City, the two created a world of dance as teachers, performers, and choreographers. Known for their versatility, elegance and passionate interpretations, the pair developed a unique style in Argentine Tango, Milonga and Vals plus a repertoire in Latin American Folklore, including Salsa and Merengue. Sought after both separately and together, their success stories as performer/choreographers include a tribute to Tito Puente, Madison Square Garden and Camila at the Walnut Street Theatre. They have performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, The Felt Form at Madison Square Garden and Town Hall. They have been featured on Good Morning America, Best Talk and Canal Sur; appeared in the film "My Cousin Vinnie" with Joe Pesci, and have found a new outlet in music videos, appearing in "Tu Corazon" with Vanessa Williams and Chayanne from the film "Dance With Me", among others. www.WoodstockTango.com Dance tango for peace!
