MILONGA LOS AMIGOS IN PASADENA on Saturday, March 10th

Oscar & Ana wowed Los Angeles last year! They are teachers who LOVE teaching. They are total professionals as well as super-nice people. Their performances are spontaneous and completely improvised. They embody the sheer joy of dancing tango with connection and musicality. These two are PURE FUN! Book your private lessons NOW--they will fill up.

Oscar teaches regular classes at El Beso in Buenos Aires when he is not traveling the world to teach and perform. He was born in Parque Patricios, a well-known tango barrio in Buenos Aires. His parents were avid tango dancers, and in the 1950s and '60s they organized three different milongas per week, which regularly drew in 400-500 dancers. He was very much influenced by his father, both by osmosis and discussion. Oscar has a distinct style both in his dance and his teaching. He is very milonguero, and is respected by the old guard in the milongas of BA. He is also extremely popular with young tangueros. He teaches with energy and humor, emphasizing concepts, specializing in improvisation, always interpreting the music and respecting the character of the different orchestras. Oscar is especially interested in the dynamics and cadencia of the dance. Everything he teaches is applicable to crowded milongas.  

Ana started teaching with the famous Argentine instructor and performer Pocho Pizarro. From 2005 to 2008, she performed in the show “Bacanazo” which was held in the Empire Theatre and the Roman Theatre in BA and she also performed as part of the show at Esquina Carlos Gardel from 2006 to 2010 in BA.  She is a great teacher in her own right, meticulous and detailed in her explanations. She follows with energy, dynamics and creativity.
