At the 2007 Atlanta Tango Festival, when Alicia was dancing, every woman in the room who was not dancing was absolutely entranced watching Alicias foot play. Alicia had so many men lining up to dance with her they almost needed to take a number! Alicias bio information: Alicia Pons is an elegant dancer with refined technique and distinctive personality. Her ability to imbue the role of the woman with verve and style has made her one of the most sought after female partners in wherever she goes. She is most noted for her beautiful foot play and the strongly sensual connection with her partner, which is done with humor and decorum. She exemplifies communication and presence in the dance, and this is a focus in her teaching for both men and women. As a teacher, Alicia emphasizes the connection between the partners, and in particular the womans ability to not just follow, but to be an equal protagonist in the dance dialogue. Her knowledge of the mechanics of what makes the dance work in the milonguero embrace is unique; however, the information she imparts can be applied to any style of tango and is not only useful to the milonguero style dancer. She teaches tango with a delightful sense of humor and is an extremely warm and approachable person who loves to teach. Alicia was trained in classical dance from an early age and as a young woman performed in some of Buenos Aires most well known theaters, the Colon, the Coliseo, and the Alvear. Her introduction to tango came later, and her first teacher was Graciela Gonzalez, whose womens technique helped shape Alicias tango footwork. Alicia then gravitated toward the milonguero style and her first inspiration and male teacher in that style was Tete Rusconi, one of the most renowned milongueros of his generation. Alicia also teaches university level psychology classes in Buenos Aires.
