[Tango-A] NA-C: Robin Thomas in St Louis, MO: June 22-24, 2007

[Shaun Sellers]

Robin Thomas (who teaches and djs in NYC) 
will be in St Louis June 22-24, 2007 to 
teach several tango workshops.

In addition to the classes, we will be 
organizing a couple of milongas and a 
practica just for the occasion. Two special 
DJs have been invited along with Robin. We 
have already been contacted by interested 
people from Ann Arbor, KC, Memphis, Champaign-Urbana,
Chicago, and State College (Pennsylvania). This 
will be a fun-packed tango weekend.

The workshop classes will be "couples only" with 
optional partner changes. He has used this format 
in his recent classes in Atlanta (which were sold 
out in advance). So we are requesting that people 
sign up with a partner.

Robin will teach to the level of the participants 
of each class.

If you don't have a partner, contact us and we will 
try to find you one. We will only have space for about 
15 couples in the classes, so don't wait to register. 
The milongas will be open to everyone.

Weekend Pass for all events (6 classes, 2 milongas and 1 
practica): $100

Student discount: 50%

About Robin from his website www.robinthomastango.com:

A well-known and respected dancer and DJ, Robin's 
enthusiasm for Argentine tango can be seen most 
clearly in his wholehearted dedication to teaching. 
He believes that it is very important for students 
to dance simply and musically from the very beginning.
Building that strong base of connection and musicality 
early, Robin believes, will allow even very new beginners 
to feel comfortable and confident on a crowded dance floor 
and will also lead to a more comprehensive and fluid 
understanding of more complicated techniques later on. 
Robin's teaching style reflects this philosophy, and 
his students appreciate the humorous but still 
down-to-earth way he presents the material.

Robin's travel schedule is a busy one, reflecting his 
growing popularity as a teacher and tango DJ. Recently, 
he has taught in Portland, Denver, Ann Arbor, Washington DC, 
Seattle, Berlin, Edinburgh, San Diego, Providence, Pittsburgh 
and at the universities, Yale, Princeton, and Cornell.

When he is not traveling, Robin stays busy in his hometown of 
New York City teaching 3 group classes per week at Empire 
Dance Studio. On the rare occasion that he is neither teaching 
or DJing, Robin can always be seen on the dance floor, either 
working to expand his own understanding of Argentine tango, 
or simply enjoying the connection he works so hard to share 
with others.
