2nd Announcement: Discount for advanced Registration!
Alex Krebs in St. Louis September 9-11, 2005 "Alex Krebs is one of the most influential young tango dancers, and musicians, in the US. He has done his homework, traveling to Buenos Aires and working with most of the important living teachers and dancers of his time. He has immersed himself in the music, learning the bandoneon, and teaching his dance students how important musical interpretation is. He has visited many of the tango's diverse communities and danced a wide variety of styles. And in his home town of Portland Oregon, he is an integral member of the community, the owner of his own studio, and the leader of the local tango band. To this long resume add his relaxed attitude, good humor, and articulate teaching, and you get a master tango teacher that should not be missed when he comes to visit." -Daniel Trenner, Northampton, MA Check the website for complete details: www.tangoteacher.com Friday September 9 at the Monday Club 7:00 pm Doors Open, Registration: water, soda & snacks provided; byob 7:30-8:30 pm Getting to Know Tango Every teacher has their core beliefs on how to find tango.
