Norberto “El Pulpo” Esbrez is considered one of the most creative contemporary
Argentine tango dancers. Pulpo will share his deep understanding of the legwork
in tango that made him known in Buenos Aires and
all over the world as "The King of Ganchos". But Pulpo’s ganchos are not the
norm!
Ganchos usually are staccato kicks; Pulpo's enganche style is to smoothly hook
legs with the follower and hold the hook for a moment or two. It's fun and very
sensual to do.
Pulpo will focus on combining the use of legs and the styling in close embrace
and nuevo milonguero!
