Dear Tango Aficionados,

Dance of the Heart is very happy to announce, for your tango enjoyment:

"An Integral Tango Encounter with TOMAS HOWLIN AND NOEL STRAZZA".
Friday February 16 - Monday February 19, 2007
Featuring Workshops and Performances in Boulder and Denver

This "Integral Tango Encounter" with these virtuosos is the second event in
a new series for us: a structured, wide-ranging exploration of the many
cultural currents and perspectives within the rich tradition of Argentine
Tango social dance and music.

TOMAS HOWLIN  needs no introduction to many of you - he was one of the
pioneering Argentine traveling teachers to truly leave his mark on our
Colorado tango community.  He's visited us many times over the years, both
by himself and also partnering in workshops with both Florencia Taccetti and
Chantal Dauphinais, and also with our own Deb Sclar for a memorable teaching
stint at the Denver Memorial Day Milonguero Festival in 2005.  It was our
pleasure to introduce him to Brigitta Winkler, with whom he's been teaching
and performing at many festivals over the past several years.  Native of
Buenos Aires, Tomas brings to us the lessons of his eleven years of teaching
and performing in Argentina, North America and Europe. He dances and teaches
authentic Argentine Tango, and has been privileged to study with the
greatest teachers of all time.  His knowledge and pedagogy are unique and
exceptional. Tomas believes in a natural, comfortable and thoughtful tango;
a way of dancing that is unique for each person. Currently one of the most
sought-after and popular teachers in North America, Tomas is appreciated for
his sharp eye, gentle humor and accessibility.  
 
NOEL STRAZZA, born in Buenos Aires, studied contemporary dance as a youth.
She was a member of the Contemporary Dance Ballet of the theatre San Martin
from 1995 to 1998 and also worked as an assistant choreographer.  She began
dancing Argentine Tango in 1997.  Through her talent and dedication, she
rose rapidly in the world of Argentine Tango, teaching and performing with
the famous Pablo Veron (star of the seminal 1997 movie "The Tango Lesson")
in Europe, Australia, Asia and North America from 2000 to 2005.  Noel now
lives in Montreal where she regularly performs, choreographs and teaches
with Tomas.

We're very excited to have Tomas back again - his career has been growing so
fast, it wasn't clear we'd be able to get him back anytime soon.  And we're
very excited as well to have him introduce us to Noel Strazza for the first
time, instead of just hearing about her.  We're looking forward to sharing
them both with you soon!
