Dear Tango Aficionados,
Dance of the Heart is proud and excited to invite you to join us in Buenos
Aires for our next Tango IntensivoT with Luciana Valle and her team of
Argentine assistants! The advance registration discount deadlines are
approaching, so check your schedule and your wallet and see if Buenos Aires
is calling you to dance tango!
We've been working intimately with Luciana (see her story at
www.lucianavalle.com) since 1998, and sponsoring her many visits to Colorado
since 2002. She is a peerless tango teacher, energetic, playful, warm and
supportive, yet brilliantly incisive in her analysis of tango and
penetratingly effective in sharing her insights with her students. She has
brought the pleasures of the tango embrace to students all over the world.
Her memorable teaching style, mastery of all styles of tango, complete
experience as both a leader and a follower, and historic contributions to
tango development in Buenos Aires are just some of the reasons she leaves
ardent fans behind her wherever she goes. Many well-known North American
tango teachers, some with extensive followings of their own, credit Luciana
enthusiastically as a major influence in their tango development.
We've incorporated the extensive feedback from our last two events with
Luciana (many thanks to those who filled out the relatively lengthy
evaluations!), so we expect this Tango IntensivoT to continue the tradition
set by its predecessors of "continuous tango improvement". We're looking
forward to sharing the changes with you!Here are a few stunning reviews of
our recent Tango IntensivoT events:
"I really loved the program and totally happy I went. Luciana's knowledge of
the information is incredible and her way of explaining is totally clear,
succinct and easily understandable. Since I teach I know what it's like. She
did a superb job. You two were unbelievable (Brian & Deb). I know you did so
much behind the scenes with people and helping everyone etc. You did it with
such style and class it went unnoticed in a good way. Thank you for being so
good at what you did. I could go on and on." CW, Massachusetts
"...what an AWESOME intensivo. the quality of the ENTIRE experience is a
testimony to the tireless work you put into it. i feel privileged to be a
part of this historical occasion, yes...historical! Especially wonderful was
the opportunity to work with argentine dancers, the meticulous care and
timing with which all the classes were designed, and the quality of the
material offered.My embrace is more secure, masculine and dynamic." MB,
Colorado
"I'm approaching following very differently and relearning how to dance
using relaxation and not "muscling through" everything. I think this will
make me a more receptive partner.I wanna do it again! " DF, Washington
The Tango Intensivo(tm) will be held on February 27 - March 4, to coincide
with the Buenos Aires Tango Festival. Attendees of last year's program were
very pleased with the wide range of tango events available to them "after
hours" as part of the festival - dance events, outdoor and indoor concerts
with first-rank tango bands both classical and cutting-edge, movie showings,
lectures, and the open-air downtown "street milonga" on the final weekend!
===LOGISTICS===
