ENRIQUETA KLEINMAN BIOGRAPHY
Enriqueta Kleinman, an artist by profession, is a milonguero style tango
dancer/teacher, who is well-known in the milongas of Buenos Aires, as
well as a singer of tango music.She possesses a charismatic personality,
transmitting her passion to her students in a clear and fun manner, and
motivates them to dance what they feel in their soul and put it into
their body.
In tango, Enriqueta has had several important teachers that left lasting
impressions. With each one she investigated different styles and
concepts: Carlos Gavito (“technique for the woman”), Roberto “Pocho”
Carreras, Nely Fernando, Ana Maria Shapira, and Susana Miller. It is
with Susana that Enriqueta learned how to teach. Enriqueta absorbed the
concepts of dance of these teachers and their teachings and incorporated
them into her own.
With time and through teaching other disciplines, Enriqueta developed
her own pedagogical method which makes it possible for dancers to "find
their own tango".
Relying on a solid foundation in technique and musicality, Enriqueta
gives classes to men and women in tango, vals and milonga. She puts the
accent on the structure that makes it possible to let one’s expression
appear and develop. She travels tirelessly to many cities in Europe,
Canada and the United States, including Chicago, Seattle, Portland, Ann
Arbor, Tucson, Iowa City, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, San Francisco, San
Diego, Toronto, Rome, Bonn, and Amsterdam; she has participated in many
tango festivals including May Madness (Ann Arbor), Valentengo
(Portland), Tucson Tango Festival, and the Chicago Mini Tango Festival.
In April 2009, Northwestern University invited Enriqueta to give a
lecture titled: “Gender and its Relation to Tango Music”. Northwestern
invited her again to give lectures in October 2009 and June 2010.
Her students love and respect her. She establishes strong principles and
she generates a climate of intense, but lively, fun and pleasant work.
