teacher, Horacio Godoy and his talented partner Cecilia Garcia.

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.

and advanced level dancers in a progressive manner. We will accept
