RICARDO VIQUEIRA
milonguero & teacher, known for his ease, elegance, masterful
footwork and musicality in tango, milonga and vals.
Ricardo emphasizes each dancer's own axis, and their connection to
each other. He has developed simple techniques that help the leader
mark the step and the follower to understand the lead. He teaches his
students the technique to create their own personal style of dance:
to recognize opportunities to change direction, and to move with
musicality, emphasizing pauses and simple rhythmical phrasing.
