Norberto ?El Pulpo? Esbrez?s father and grandfather both were respected bandoneon players; his dancing is innately infused with musicality. Nicknamed ?El Pulpo? (the octopus) due to his uniquely fluid style - effortlessly leading and engaging complicated movements within the tango salida such as displacements, ganchos, enganches, enredadas, ocho ?loco?s, suspensi?ns, cruces con cambio de peso ? continuously intertwining his legs with those of his partner?s. El Pulpo is renowned in Buenos Aires and throughout the world for his thorough understanding of the balance, body positions and partner communication fundamental to this exquisite leg work. Already with numerous innovations in the Argentine tango world to his credit, El Pulpo is incessantly developing his distinctive technique and style which he will share with the Chicago tango community and visiting tangophiles during June 24-30, 2009. ?The improvisation is me at the present moment. And, in the present moment, there's only me and my dance partner. What dance (other than Argentine Tango) is more true to what one feels? ? I fly listening to melodies. I inspire myself all the time in the melody. ? It gives an endless freedom, something that to me is fundamental in my dance. My dance expresses the freedom I have inside and the music ? inspires freedom.? Norberto ?El Pulpo? Esbrez Pulpo?s clear, relaxed, humorous style of instruction helps students achieve greater precision and creativity. Pulpo, a teacher at Fabian Salas? CITA (mid-March in BsAs) since 2001, has garnered instructional and performance acclaim throughout Europe and South America as well as the U.S. He now organizes Pulpo?s Tango Week each November in Buenos Aires.

Saturday evening, June 6th, we plan to have a Black and White Milonga. Friday evening, June 5th, we plan to be at Los Besos Milonguita at Barba Yianni. Susana Miller will be in Chicago from June 4th through June 11th and will be available for private lessons. SUSANA MILLER BIO. Susana Miller is the most prominent teacher in the world today of the "milonguero" style of tango or what Argentines all "apilado." This style is danced in the crowded clubs of central Buenos Aires. It is a strictly social style that emphasizes musicality and the connection between partners. Susana has researched and studied the dancing of the older milongueros, each of whom has created their own unique style of tango. She has been able to decipher their distinct vocabularies and choreographic combinations, and is gifted in her ability to convey these to students. Susana encourages students to employ more rhythm in their dance, to discover their own dance vocabularies, and to learn how to shape and shrink these in space. For women, she encourages active following, in which the woman interprets the messages that the leader's body and the spirit are sending. Clarin, the major Buenos Aires daily paper, called her one of the four most important influences on contemporary tango, along with Miguel Angel Zotto, Gustavo Naveira and Gerardo Portalea.

The class is offered by Donata Radziunaite a member of a new free social networking tango video website, which you can join via link at http://www.Argentine-tango.com The tango social networking website allows members from all over the world to participate in forums, post blogs, pictures, tango events, chat online, and more. About the Spanish classes, Doanta writes: "Why should you be interested in the Spanish courses dedicated to tango? "Personally, I enjoy dancing much mor when I can understand the words of tango songs. "My native language is Lithuanian and I find it wonderful that while communicating in a new language...the knowledge of Spanish language opens my mind for TANGO. "Basically, how do these Spanish courses differ from the traditional ones is that they help you to improve your language skills and at the same time become familiar with the special tango songs vocabulary, the history of the dance and also the history of the city, which gave a birth to tango. There is a special promotion price of $10 per hour for private language classes via Skype with university qualified professors. Note: the website is free to join, but it is required that you upload a photo of yourself or a photo that is related to Argentine tango.

At age thirteen, Daniela began training in ballet, modern dance, music, acting, jazz, argentinean folk dancing and gymnastics. She is a graduate of the Escuela Nacional de Danzas and Instituto Nacional de Gimnasia. She began to teach and choreograph tango at the age of twenty-five and developed the passion for the drama of the latin dances and cultures, recognizing that the Tango was her own artistic vocabulary. Her style developed as a result of her training both in ballet and modern-contemporary dance, and the influence and instruction from some of the great "milongueros" (the tango masters) of Club Almagro and Villa Urquiza of Buenos Aires such as Rodolfo Dinzel, Eduardo Arquimbau, Antonio Todaro, and Pepito Avellaneda and years spent dancing and observing in the milongas of Buenos Aires. Please join us in welcoming Daniela back into the Philadelphia/NJ area. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQKVtiYSMNA Daniela & Omar Vega http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBKUnjhs_QU&feature=related IBM Ad Contact Vittoria or Guillermo (856)751-2770 or tangodancers at comcast.net www.argentangodancers.com From laturca.yesim at gmail.com Thu Jun 4 13:49:50 2009 From: laturca.yesim at gmail.com (Yesim La Turca) Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2009 13:49:50 -0400 Subject: [Tango-A] NA-E: NYC - AMARRAS MILONGA Saturday JUNE 6 with TWO fantastic couples!

Tango 411 & The Philadelphia Argentine Tango School are delighted to announce two days of events with Otros Aires, Argentina's premiere electronic tango band, on July 7 & 8. Mark your calendars (and purchase your tickets) now. We'll do our best to find housing for travelers so if you're thinking of coming in town for the events, please let us know as soon as you can. WEDNESDAY, JULY 8: MILONGA WITH OTROS AIRES LIVE On Wednesday, July 8, Otros Aires will present "?one of the most unique and compelling audiovisual live shows in contemporary global fusion" (according to smallworldmusic.com in Toronto) -- right here in Philadelphia! An ?archaeological-electronic project,? Otros Aires mines the annals of tango?s history to create a sound that is 90% tango and 10% electronic. Blending samples from some of the earliest tangos with contemporary lyrics and electronic beats, they create a modern day music that maintains the feeling and spirit of traditional tango. Visual images form the backdrop of the band?s concerts, creating a spectacle that is engaging and often humorous. The event in Philadelphia will be held at the Philadelphia Ethical Society and will be set up as a milonga, so there will be plenty of space for dancing. Seating will be available for non-dancing concert-goers. Discounted parking ($12) is available across the street from the venue. Wednesday, July 8 7 pm: Beginner Lesson in Argentine Tango 8:00-11:30 pm: Milonga with Otros Aires LIVE The band's first set is at 8:30 pm.

They will be in Chicago from July 14-July 23 and will do a weekend of workshops on July 18 and 19.They will also be available for private lessons during their stay. Biography Oscar was born in Parque Patricios (a well-known tango barrio in Buenos Aires). His parents were avid tango dancers, and, in the 1950's and '60's, they organized three different milongas per week, which regularly drew in 400-500 dancers. Oscar was very much influenced by his father, both by osmosis and discussion. He absorbed the code (codigo) of the milongueros, and when he eventually decided to take up the dance seriously, he already had a background and base that was the envy of many. Mary Ann came to tango eleven years ago from a background of ice-dancing. Coincidentally, her favourite ice-dance is the Argentine Tango. Oscar and Mary Ann have spent the last years living and teaching 6 months in Bs As and 6 months in Toronto and the US. 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 Buenos Aires. He is also extremely popular with his students, who are impressed by his teaching style. He teaches with energy and humor, emphasizing concepts, specializing in improvisation, always interpreting the music and respecting the character of the different orchestras. He is especially interested in the dynamics and cadencia of the dance. Everything he teaches is applicable to crowded milongas. Together they have taught workshops and private classes in Buenos Aires, Toronto, and several American cities, including Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Seattle, and Portland. Oscar's unique approach to teaching and his charismatic personality have impressed and delighted his students everywhere. He puts his heart and soul into his classes, and his students respond in kind.

Couple reminders: - It looks like the block of hotel rooms reserved for us is about to be sold out. Considering that even the local Tango dancers decide to stay at the hotel during Chicago Tango Week, it's getting very difficult to find local host for out-of-town visitors. Average number of rooms already booked around 175 daily so far. Please make sure to take care of your room reservations as soon as possible. We have created a "CAFE" where one can look for roommate(s). www.cafe.chicagotangoweek.com Festival Hotel room rate is $90 single /double occupancy includes breakfast where you can chat with Maestros and other Tango lovers,Tango professionals and Otros Aires musicians in the mornings. - Milonga admissions: We expect over hundred advanced dancers and professionals coming to Chicago Tango Week for social dancing in addition to registered dancers, so milonga admission will be depending on the number dancers at the milonga. In order to prevent delays and waiting in the line to get in, we suggest that if you are planning to attend only milongas, you should register and get your milonga pass in advance. Milonga admission for Friday July 3 (Concert-milonga w/ Otros Aires) and Saturday July 4 (Gran Milonga) is limited to 400.

I have started the registration for the master classes with Julio Balmaceda and Corina de la Rosa, July 15-22, 2009. I have already contacted the dancers on my list because this event is full. However, there are always changes and life happens. I currently anticipate that there may be 1-2 dance couple spaces that become available in the next week or so. If you are planning to come to Denver for this wonderful event, please let me know as soon as possible. If you have not received an e-mail from me with the registration materials, that means one of two things - either you are not on my list, or your partner for the classes has already placed you on my list. Please check with your dance partner whether or not he/she has received the registration form. Please take a look at the schedule of the seminars. There will be 24 hours of class time in one week. This is an amazing learning experience. From my perspective, to spend so many hours learning from these master teachers without having to leave town is a true luxury.

Here is another, but in this case, we did go far enough to create something a *tad bit more interesting* than the usual workshops+milongas 'festival'... *Danubiando - 6*^*th* * Budapest Tango Festival 23 ? 30 August* The location is *Budapest, Hungary*. If you never been here, it is a must, if you were, you already know that... :) The *programme is 8 days altogether*, with milongas every day and an *opening tango marathon* during which you can dance at several exquisite locations in downtown Budapest. The teachers for our workshops are: *Sebastian Arce ? Mariana Montes Mariano 'Chicho' Fr?mboli ? Juana Sepulveda Damian Rosenthal ? Celine Ruiz* They will also perform in the half of a two hour show, which also features Hungarian dancers, three tango orchestras (of three different style: classical, nuevo and electrotango) and a full symphonic orchestra, in the 1500-seat Palace of Arts. And the best part is: the price. Early bird discount gives you *classes around 10?/hour*, *milongas from 4?* (we charge you in Hungarian Forints which lost quite a bit of it's value and is still fluctuating ? prices are calculated with the actual exchange rates on our hompage), *theatre seats 13?-45?*, we have *accomodation* offers starting from *13?/person* (hostel), through 30?/person (3 star), to *80?/person (luxury, double occupation)* and *meals* during the workshops *at* *5?* (3 choice menus at a fancy restaurant). There are *optional full-day sightseeing* trips available from our partners for *50?/person* both in Budapest and in the country (including meals, 'palinka' tasting and several other programmes). We will have the milongas also at truly beautiful places. Check out all the details and you can also purchase your festival packages at our homepage: www.danubiando.com OR www.tangofestival.hu www.danubiando.eu If you have any trouble using it (some browsers cause us grief, especially Internet Explorer), please contact me at info at danubiando.com.

At age thirteen, Daniela began training in ballet, modern dance, music, acting, jazz, argentinean folk dancing and gymnastics. She is a graduate of the Escuela Nacional de Danzas and Instituto Nacional de Gimnasia. She began to teach and choreograph tango at the age of twenty-five and developed the passion for the drama of the latin dances and cultures, recognizing that the Tango was her own artistic vocabulary. Her style developed as a result of her training both in ballet and modern-contemporary dance, and the influence and instruction from some of the great "milongueros" (the tango masters) of Club Almagro and Villa Urquiza of Buenos Aires such as Rodolfo Dinzel, Eduardo Arquimbau, Antonio Todaro, and Pepito Avellaneda and years spent dancing and observing in the milongas of Buenos Aires. Please join us in welcoming Daniela back into the Philadelphia/NJ area. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQKVtiYSMNA Daniela & Omar Vega http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBKUnjhs_QU&feature=related IBM Ad Contact Vittoria or Guillermo (856)751-2770 or tangodancers at comcast.net www.argentangodancers.com _______________________________________________ From kjsummit at hotmail.com Sat Jun 13 18:15:06 2009 From: kjsummit at hotmail.com (karen jaffe) Date: Sat, 13 Jun 2009 18:15:06 -0400 Subject: [Tango-A] NA-E: Kara Wehnam and Yanick Wyler in Asheville, NC July 9-14 Message-ID: NA-E: Kara Wehnam and Yanick Wyler in Asheville, NC July 9 to 14 Tangogypsies presents Kara Wehnam and Yanick Wyler of Buenos Aires July 9 to 14 see bios - www.tangogypsies.com REGISTRATION IS OPEN, Class size is limited!

Message-ID: <003b01c9ed17$03f18380$0600000a@Dentre> Tango Tour to Buenos Aires 2009 September 24th to October 5th CST#2085488 This tour is organized around the idea of taking you to the heart of tango; to see the places where the locals go, not to show off for tourists, but to just dance from their souls, to enjoy themselves in the ecstasy of tango. For me, as an instructor, this tour is a reminder that my students should be able to dance in such places, among those dancers. Of course, it takes a lot of time, practice, and dedication measured in years. Still, at any stage of the student's learning process, witnessing this facet of Argentine Tango would be an essential part of knowing what tango really is about. The trip includes: - Airfare from San Francisco (one stop from S.F). - Hotel in the best location of Buenos Aires (double occupancy) at Hotel Lyon www.hotel-lyon.com.ar - 24 hours assistance (we know the city and we speak the language!). - City Tours (you'll get to know all the characteristic places: Obelisco ? Downtown - Plaza de Mayo - Cafe Tortoni - San Telmo - Recoleta and much more). - Shopping tours to places where locals go looking for quality and price. - A Day in the Countryside. - 4 Tango Classes with the best local teachers. - Milongas almost every evening or afternoon. - Transportation to all the mentioned activities. - A DVD with memories of the trip. Cost: $2,290.00. - Until July 31st 2009. To sign in and get this early bird price I just need a $400.00.- advance (non-refundable). Why coming to Buenos Aires with me ? I am a certified travel agent, tango instructor and native. I have 15 years working on tango tours and 6 years organizing my own trips. I work with a team of most capable an reliable people. I know the culture. I speak the language. My customers are thrilled and many of them keep coming back every year. I have a great time enjoying it!!! In addition to Buenos Aires, I can also make arrangements for you to visit any other destinations in Argentina (Mendoza, Salta, Jujuy, Bariloche, Iguazu Falls, etc.) Planning a trip to Buenos Aires? Contact me...I can help you! I am always trying to offer the best efficiency and quality in all what I do. I offer a Tango Tour to Buenos Aires every year and I take many people with me, but some people can not join me because the time for their vacation is different or many other reasons, so they travel to Buenos Aires by themselves. Since I am from Argentina and I have people over there who work with me, I can offer help to all those people who plan a trip to Buenos Aires. I can arrange a convenient package including flight tickets, hotel, and excursions, or if you just need someone over there to help you out I can put you in contact with the right person, also if you want to know about best teachers in Buenos Aires, taxi dancers, or milongas, please contact me. Come to experience Buenos Aires Argentine Tango scene from a inside point of view, feeling yourself at home, meeting local people and living 10 wonderful days immerse into the "Porte?o" life style.

They will be in Chicago from July 14-July 23 and will do a weekend of workshops on July 18 and 19.They will also be available for private lessons during their stay. Biography Oscar was born in Parque Patricios (a well-known tango barrio in Buenos Aires). His parents were avid tango dancers, and, in the 1950's and '60's, they organized three different milongas per week, which regularly drew in 400-500 dancers. Oscar was very much influenced by his father, both by osmosis and discussion. He absorbed the code (codigo) of the milongueros, and when he eventually decided to take up the dance seriously, he already had a background and base that was the envy of many. Mary Ann came to tango eleven years ago from a background of ice-dancing. Coincidentally, her favourite ice-dance is the Argentine Tango. Oscar and Mary Ann have spent the last years living and teaching 6 months in Bs As and 6 months in Toronto and the US. 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 Buenos Aires. He is also extremely popular with his students, who are impressed by his teaching style. He teaches with energy and humor, emphasizing concepts, specializing in improvisation, always interpreting the music and respecting the character of the different orchestras. He is especially interested in the dynamics and cadencia of the dance. Everything he teaches is applicable to crowded milongas. Together they have taught workshops and private classes in Buenos Aires, Toronto, and several American cities, including Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Seattle, and Portland. Oscar's unique approach to teaching and his charismatic personality have impressed and delighted his students everywhere. He puts his heart and soul into his classes, and his students respond in kind.

While living in Hawaii in 2002 Ernest began teaching tango formally at the request of fellow dancers. Since 2003 Ernest has traveled nationally and internationally gathering a wealth of knowledge and experience in the world of dance from various sources. He has conducted workshops, seminars and/or dance exhibitions across the country in cities such as Richmond, VA, Charlotte, N.C., Raleigh-Durham, N.C, Washington D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, Nashville, St. Louis, Cleveland, Wichita, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago Albuquerque, San Francisco and Honolulu. He has also taught several intensive tango and milonga seminars in Montevideo, Uruguay and Buenos Aires, Argentina. Some of his most notable US performances include the musical Candombe: Tango Negro with choreographer Carina Losano and the famous Candombe group Cuareim1080 at the Gala Theatre in Washington, DC. During a sojourn to the Rio de la Plata region of South America, he was a three-time featured tango performer on "La Ciudad de Tango", a live national TV show in Uruguay and a two-time featured candombe dancer with the high-profile Candombe organization La Gozadera in Montevideo. He has also given special exhibitions in milonga con traspie and salsa at the famous milonga/tangueria Viejo Correo in Buenos Aires. A graduate of the "Master para Maestros" program at La Escuela Argentina del Tango in Buenos Aires, Ernest's teaching style is clear and detailed, and his profound knowledge of the many forms of Tango make him an ideal instructor for both the beginner and the advanced tanguero. Maricela Wilson has trained in dance forms as divergent as hip hop, ballet, tap, jazz, modern interpretive, African folkloric, salsa, mambo and cha cha. Her first love and expertise is in Salsa, Mambo and Cha Cha. She has recently become a tanguera under the tutelage of Ernest and is now his partner in their many appearances at Tango events around the country. Her teaching philosophy is to have fun first and foremost but also to give her students a strong foundation along with the latest cutting edge moves and concepts. Together Ernest and Maricela represent the future of tango while respecting the past. They are playful and youthful with their dance. They believe in knowing the rules before breaking them and that anyone can learn from anyone else, thus they are always seeking knowledge and inspiration from all walks of life. They are an exciting new couple on the national scene with something truly different to offer, so come check them out. INFORMATION FROM ERNEST ON THESE DANCES WHICH MAY BE "NEW" TO US IN SE IOWA CANYENGUE Canyengue is the offspring of milonga and the precursor to the tango as we know it. It was how people danced tango in the first couple of decades of the 20th century. It has hands lowered and bent knees. It was danced to early tango orchestras like Francisco Canaro and Roberto Firpo and can be danced to newer groups like Tubatango. It's fun, relevant to music we often hear at milongas, and it's enjoying a resurgence in popularity. CANDOMBE Candombe is an Afro Uruguayan drum and dance tradition that is the father of the milonga (habanera/son would be the mother). It gives much of the footwork, body movements and rhythm of milonga. It was originally, (and still is) danced by the blacks of the Rio de la Plata region of Uruguay and Argentina. It is now enjoyed by the blacks and whites of the region, but primarily in Uruguay. MILONGA CANDOMBERA Milonga Candombera is a more recent reconstruction of a fusion of the milonga and the candombe which is reminiscent of the times when candombe and habanera/son were giving birth to the milonga as a dance (from the year 1860 to 1880). The most famous dancers of this style are Facundo and Kely Posadas. HOSTS REQUESTED FOR OUT-OF-TOWN GUESTS COMING IN FOR THE WORKSHOPS Ernest and Maricela's visit to Iowa City promises to be new and exciting for our community and we very pleased to have them coming. If you wish to host out-of-town guests coming in for the day classes/evening milonga that can be a great help to the success of the workshops. More folks are hearing about Iowa City as a place to dance and learn tango, milonga, vals, canyengue, condombe. Contact Juan Marcos EMAIL juan at juanmarcos.com if you can make space available for guests coming in for our Ernest Williams Workshop Day/Evening.

They will be in Chicago from July 14-July 23 and will do a weekend of workshops on July 18 and 19. They will also be available for private lessons during their stay. Biography Oscar was born in Parque Patricios (a well-known tango barrio in Buenos Aires). His parents were avid tango dancers, and, in the 1950's and '60's, they organized three different milongas per week, which regularly drew in 400-500 dancers. Oscar was very much influenced by his father, both by osmosis and discussion. He absorbed the code (codigo) of the milongueros, and when he eventually decided to take up the dance seriously, he already had a background and base that was the envy of many. Mary Ann came to tango eleven years ago from a background of ice-dancing. Coincidentally, her favourite ice-dance is the Argentine Tango. Oscar and Mary Ann have spent the last years living and teaching 6 months in Bs As and 6 months in Toronto and the US. 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 Buenos Aires. He is also extremely popular with his students, who are impressed by his teaching style. He teaches with energy and humor, emphasizing concepts, specializing in improvisation, always interpreting the music and respecting the character of the different orchestras. He is especially interested in the dynamics and cadencia of the dance. Everything he teaches is applicable to crowded milongas. Together they have taught workshops and private classes in Buenos Aires, Toronto, and several American cities, including Chicago, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Seattle, and Portland. Oscar's unique approach to teaching and his charismatic personality have impressed and delighted his students everywhere. He puts his heart and soul into his classes, and his students respond in kind.

The other LA sites, as far as I can tell, don't have comprehensive listings. Anyone from LA who can help point me to another site or, in a pinch, send me info for July 1, July 2 and July 4 (to start)?
