In the early days of tango, men practiced exclusively with each other to prepare for dancing tango with women in the milongas. On June 6, renowned tango historian Anton Gazenbeek brings this barrio tradition to life at Corazon. He will be presenting an exclusive workshop in leaders' technique, an amazing opportunity for anyone who leads or wants to better understand leaders. Later in the evening he will be giving a rare performance with Sergio Segura, in the style of the all-male turn-of-the-century practicas.
Corazon is at Dance Studio 101, at 101 Lafayette Street (second Floor) 1 block south of the Canal Street Station (N, R, W, 6) Parking is free and plentiful. Beginner class: 8:00pm Worksho with Anton: 8:30pm Dancing: 9:30pm 'til 12:30am, with a performance. Snacks are served all night and the cash bar offers cold drinks for the thirsty! Admission: $ 12 Anton is a guest of this year's New York Tango Festival, but this workshop and performance are only on June 6 at Corazon – a taste of Buenos Aires in New York!
