We are offering an Early-bird discount of the entire weekend package for $180 and $90 for one-day if registration is completed and payment is made by 30 December 2008. You can register online at http://www.regonline.com/godoy Having inherited the tango tradition from the great Argentine masters and a family that includes his sister - the famed Mora Godoy - he is recognized both in Argentina and worldwide as having been instrumental in the resurrection of this sensual dance. He has also contributed greatly to the renewed popularity of the Villa Urquiza style. Horacio and Cecilia travel extensively in Europe so it is a special treat for us to have them conduct workshops in Chicago. Don't miss a rare opportunity to take lessons from these maestros of musicality and milonga. Horacio is the founder and director the renowned tango school La Viruta in Buenos Aires. He and Cecilia are also leading instructors at the academy along with 5 other teaching couples. La Viruta hosts one of the most popular milongas in Buenos Aires and if it happens to be your lucky night, you will catch Horacio as the DJ. We are also honored to have him DJ the Saturday night milonga. With a well respected music background as a graduate of the National Institute of Arts in Buenos Aires, Cecilia has over the years built a stellar reputation as a choreographer, performer and a member of the faculty at La Viruta. Here is a link to the infamous La Viruta: http://www.lavirutatango.com/english_version/index.html And here is a clip of Horacio and Cecilia: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x532p4_horacio-godoy-cecilia-garcia-milong_creation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQK2ZI4Ee3E Horacio and Cecilia will conduct intensive workshops for intermediate and advanced level dancers in a progressive manner.

TANGO FESTIVAL: "BY DANCERS; FOR DANCERS" We expect attendance to be about 400 range (not too big, not too small... just right). Airfares have been extremely favorable recently. I'm back in town after a three week vacation, so email me if we need to catch up on anything. ABOUT THE SAN DIEGO TANGO FESTIVAL - 5 Buenos Aires style milongas, Line-of-dance, Tandas and Curtinas - 2 Classes per day from Thursday to Sunday Brought to you by the organizers of the Denver Tango Festivals. The Town & Country is an old-fashioned, resort-style California hotel with lots of swimming pools and palm trees. San Diego is full of very good and very friendly dancers. They pull out all the stops to welcome all the festival dancers. This is another "Tango Festival For Dancers, By Dancers", which means everything is designed with the dancers in mind. Dance floor will be arranged with tables around the edge so walkers don't disturb the line of dance. The floors will be crowded, but courteous. Expect two or three lanes and Buenos Aires style floorcraft. DJs will play tandas with curtinas. Most people are familiar with and use the cabeceo to get dances, and the teachers will emphasize navigation and floorcraft in their classes. WHAT'S DIFFERENT AND SPECIAL ABOUT THE DENVER/SAN DIEGO TANGO FESTIVALS? Workshops are oriented to SOCIAL tango dancing, not stage tango. The level is generally pretty high, and many advanced dancers will be attending workshops. This is where you meet and get to know partners for dancing later at the milongas. We will be presenting the ever popular "Teacher Training" classes with Brigitta Winkler and Tomas Howlin. Open to serious, advanced dancers. Please see the class schedule for a list of all the classes and teachers. This is still tentative, meaning that specific classes and teachers may shift around. PRICING - Milonga Pass $80 (5 milongas) - Workshop Pass $90 (4 classes) - Festival Pass $165 (5 milongas and 4 classes) - Additional Classes $35/day (2 classes) Teachers will include: - Tomas Howlin, Buenos Aires/Montreal - Brigitta Winkler, Berlin/New York - Christopher Nassopoulos & Caroline Peattie, San Francisco - Robert Hauk, Portland - Fabienne Bongard, Los Angeles - Hsueh-tze Lee, Boston - Tom Stermitz & Melinda Quiat, Denver, CO DJs will include: - Shorey Meyers, San Francisco - Robert Hauk, Portland - Vijay Namasivayam, San Francisco - Mila, San Diego - Sabah, San Diego (Alternative) From francescabl at yahoo.com Mon Dec 8 18:30:42 2008 From: francescabl at yahoo.com (Francesca) Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 15:30:42 -0800 (PST) Subject: [Tango-A] NA-NE: Victorio tango shoes finally available in New York and the US!

He has also contributed greatly to the renewed popularity of the Villa Urquiza style. Horacio and Cecilia travel extensively in Europe so it is a special treat for us to have them conduct workshops in Chicago. Don't miss a rare opportunity to take lessons from these maestros of musicality and milonga. Horacio is the founder and director the renowned tango school La Viruta in Buenos Aires. He and Cecilia are also leading instructors at the academy along with 5 other teaching couples. La Viruta hosts one of the most popular milongas in Buenos Aires and if it happens to be your lucky night, you will catch Horacio as the DJ. We are also honored to have him DJ the Saturday night milonga. With a well respected music background as a graduate of the National Institute of Arts in Buenos Aires, Cecilia has over the years built a stellar reputation as a choreographer, performer and a member of the faculty at La Viruta.

Apart from the daily intensive lessons, centre stage goes to enjoying the wonderful ambience of the surroundings, the relaxed socializing within the group, and, of course, the evening?s dance after a fine meal. This is a perfect setting for an unforgettable tango experience. We would be pleased to meet you at one of the occasions. Greetings, Melina Sed? and Detlef Engel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tango-Intensiv at Mas Vinson, France (june, 20 - 27) - uniquely for "adepts" - MAS VINSON a wonderful structure surrounded by untouched nature lies near the pittouresque village Moul?zan, near Nimes and Montpellier not far away of many interesting sites and the sea.Thus is it ideal for cultural trips, sporting activities and leisuretime in the nature. MAS VINSON is an old vinery, which was renovated tastefully in the traditional style by our host, a swiss dancer Walter Kaiser. He and his family have received us cordially already for a couple of times and we'll be happy of seeing them again. There's a swimmingpool in the huge garden, boule, pingpong, shady places under the trees... Ideal for taking a break after heavy tango- work! Please look at the photos at their website: www.frankreich-ferien.ch New this year: The group will only be open for people, who've already worked with us intensively during a weekend of workshops, private classes or a Tangoholiday. Thus we can build on the basis and apply more adavanced techniques and complex movements. Don't be afraid: we'll still teach no jumps and stay connected to our roots. ;-) The program: We give classes for 20 hours in a shady and romantic winecellar: 2,5 hours after breakfast and 1,5 hours before dinner. Thus you've got the afternoon free and may visit the surrounding area or cities: Montpellier e.g. is only 50 km away, same with the sea. One entire day is lesson-free and you may also plan a longer trip to an interesting site. After the evening practica we'll have dinner together: our hosts will be serving us regional and international dishes. And then dancing starts anew: either we dance at Mas Vinson or we visit the Milongas in the nearby towns. You may book further days at Mas Vinson individually, especially if you want to visit the Tango-Marathon in Montpellier on the 27th of june: a charming event, where we'll meet a lot of friends from th south of France and from far away. Inscription & price: Price of 750 includes 7 nights & breakfasts, 7 dinners at Mas Vinson and 20 hours of teaching. Entrance fee of Milongas and bals is not included, but we'll do the reserving and booking for the group. As there's only space for 8 couples in Mas Vinson, there will be no possibility of bringing your children with you. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tangotour to the Piemont (september, 5 - 12) - Elegance and harmony in the Tango de Salon & Vals - All words can not describe the wonderfull athmosphere of the Castello San Sebastiano da Po. Near to Turin it lies in the hilly region of the Piemont: a beautifully preserved structure surrounded by pure nature. Just have a look at the pictures at www.castellosansebastiano.it and you'll agree that the elegance and calmness of Tango de Sal?n has found it's perfect home. It's only natural, that during this week we'll concentrate on elegant movements for the Tango and Vals in a close embrace. The program: We'll be giving classes for 20 hours: 2,5 hours after breakfast and 1,5 hours in the early evening. Thus you've got the afternoon free and may enjoy the early autumn sun in the wonderful garden or visit the surrounding area and cities: Turin e.g. is only a couple of minutes (by car) away. In the evening we'll enjoy a glass of wine at the terrace and dance together at the Milongas of Turin.

ABOUT TATE: Tate Di Chiazza aims to bring his students into that ?other dimension? unique to tango in which the acute connection creates a sensation of delivery from one dancer to the other. Tate seeks to achieve a lead so effective and emotive that his partner feels able and compelled to close her eyes. And conversely, a follow/counter-lead relaxed, confident, secure, and inspired enough so as to surprise her partner. The class will aim to understand the subtleties responsible for the movements (or steps), the connection, and the sensibility to the music. Tate has studied under Susana Miller, Osvaldo Zotto, Gabriel Angio y Natalia Games, Fabi?n Salas, Luis Solanas. Assistant choreographer and principal dancer for ? Tanguera,? the internationally touring production, during 2001 - 2005. Regular instructor in the institutes belonging to Maximilliano Guerra, Susana Miller, and Mora Godoy. He is currently teaching in Buenos Aires at "La Fundaci?n de tango" with Mariana Dragone .

DANIEL TRENNER is one of Tango's modern pioneers. He was one of the first dozen young people involved in tango's revival. He studied with, interviewed, filmed and organized for many of the Milongueros, the older generation dancers. He has been called a ?Johnny Appleseed of Tango? for his 20 years of touring as a tango teacher, visiting more than 100 cities on 4 continents. He was one of the early proponents of teaching tango by its elements, rather than traditional sequences of steps. In the 90s he created the first Tango tours to Buenos Aires (Bridge to the Tango), and the first Tango store in North America (The Tango Catalogue). He produced more than 80 volumes of Tango Instructional Video, with more than 40 artists (BttTV). Daniel is a staunch supporter of Tango as a Social Dance and as a vehicle for creating dance communities. His influence continues to be seen in the thriving tango communities of New York City, Denver, Boston, Washington, DC, and others. In 2001 he took a sabbatical from touring which has lasted until now. www.danieltrenner.com All events take place at Absolute Ballroom Dance Center of Pittsburgh, 6617 Hamilton Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15206 MILONGA PICANTE Saturday, Jan. 10 9:30pm-2am $15 ~~~ Workshop/Lecture Schedule ~~~ ~ FRIDAY ?
