/*Mariela Franganillo */ is widely regarded as one of the best tango
dancers and teachers of her generation, in addition to being a great
choreographer and producer. Born and raised in Argentina, she learned
to dance tango in the milongas in Buenos Aires before studying with
Gustavo Naveira and dancing with his Tango Troupe in 1990. Early
highlights of her career include dancing in Los Tangueros at Teatro
Cervantes and at Casa Blanca in Buenos Aires. After moving to the U. S.,
she performed at the Smithsonian Institute and performed & taught at
Stanford University before moving to New York City where she currently
resides. Mariela has performed in productions at Lincoln Center, Town
Hall and Carnegie Hall, with companies such as NY Tango, Piazzolla &
Beyond, Avantango, X-Tango and Eternal Tango. She is proudest of her
most recent producing venture, SWANGO, which mixes the unique styles of
Argentine Tango & West Coast Swing. Mariela conceived and choreographed
the show, together with Robert Royston and was joined by Tony Award
Winner Rupert Holmes on the book. She was part of the Broadway cast of
Forever Tango, performed with Julio Iglesia's stage show and at the
Paquito D'Rivera Tribute at Carnegie Hall and teaches at Dance
Manhattan. A uniquely gifted teacher who has given workshops across the
United States, Canada and Japan, Mariela brings a fresh enthusiasm for
tango that is melded with polished skills, years of experience and a
legacy that stretches back to the golden-era of tango.
