Welcome to My New Website!
I hope you like my new website, designed by fellow Tanguero Rob de Jong. We want to make it easy for you to find all the information about my classes, practicas, milongas and visiting teachers. You'll find a monthly calendar of activities, maps for each location, photos and videos.
We've got lots of exciting events coming in 2012. In addition to my Hollywood and Alhambra classes, I'm teaching a new beginner's class in Downtown Los Angeles on Wednesday evenings starting January 18th! DTLA is becoming a go-to destination for art, culture and dining. I'm really excited to be the first person to offer weekly dance classes right in the heart of the downtown renaissance. I'll be teaching at The Main Barre at Main and Sixth St. Click on the CLASSES page for all the details and be sure to tell your friends who live or work downtown!
TANGO MÍO MILONGA continues every Tuesday at Leonardo's, and we're adding LIVE MUSIC on the FIRST TUESDAY of every month starting FEBRUARY 7TH! Our new "house band" is LOS ANGELES DEL TANGO, including our own local tangueros Scott Haller (cello), Francis Soriano (keyboard) and Jeff White (guitar). They are joined by Keiko Cadby (violin), Mary Ann Sereth (bass), Anna Cummings (violin) and Pablo Goldstein (accordion and flute). This terrific LOCAL tango ensemble plays very danceable, classic tangos, milongas and valses. You will love them--so join us on February 7th.
Our first MILONGA LOS AMIGOS of 2012 is Saturday, January 14 in Pasadena, and our special guest teachers and performers are CARLOS BARRIONUEVO and MAYTE VALDES, stars of numerous tango shows. Don't miss the fun!
MILONGA LOS AMIGOS AT THE GRANADA is Friday, January 27th. We're going to start featuring our own local tangueros. We've got some great dancers who come to our milongas and we'll have a different couple do one number for us every month. Come out and support your tango friends. First up: Dennis Cante and Nina Lynn. Come on out and cheer them on!
Our first visiting maestros of 2012 will be OSCAR CASAS & ANA MIGUEL, March 1 - 13th. Oscar and Ana were with us last October and they were so popular we've invited them for a two-week visit. You'll love their classes and their performances. Mark your calendars now!
Let me know how you like my new website. HAPPY 2012 and DANCE MORE TANGO!
