Hi all,
As we have announced before, Brigitta WINKLER will be visiting us in Durham
this October to teach workshops and to enjoy dancing with us at our milongas.
About Brigitta:
Brigitta is one of the world's most praised teachers and innovative dancers
of tango. Her exquisite creativity, clarity and understanding of the dance
and music have inspired dancers around the world. Brigitta co-founded the
highly respected Tanzart studio in Berlin in 1987, and also the
internationally acclaimed Tango Mujer, a pioneer dance company exploring
the boundaries between tango and contemporary dance.
Brigitta Winkler lives in New York and Berlin. She has discovered Argentine
tango in 1980. Brigitte´s masters in Buenos Aires include Juan Carlos
Copes, Antonio Todaro, Pepito Avellaneda, Gustavo Naveira, and Eduardo
Arquimbau .
She is an equally gifted resource for both close embrace and open style
tango. Her classes are insightful, creative, and fun!
