Dear Tango Aficionados,

Next month, Dance of the Heart is thrilled to offer to Colorado an Integral
Tango Encounter with Federico NAVEIRA and Inés MUZZOPAPPA, two of the finest
young dancers and teachers in the world of Argentine Tango, currently on a
world tour.  We are excited and honored to welcome them to the
Denver/Boulder area in their first Colorado appearance!

Save the dates of April 1st through 6th on your tango calendar for a truly
exciting opportunity to delve into the mysteries of Argentine Tango with
those who have lived it all their young lives!  You can check our website at
www.danceoftheheart.com for full information and all updates to the schedule
below - and we should mention right now that the April 5th SUNDAY AVALON
MILONGA will be extra special - because for the first time ANYWHERE, we will
have both Federico and Inés performing, AND Federico's father GUSTAVO will
be our DJ!!

Federico Naveira
================
Raised by some of Argentina’s best dancers and teachers, with the Buenos
Aires tango resurgence swirling around him every day almost from the time he
could walk, Federico Naveira is today one of the leading lights among the
new generation of Tango dancers.
He began dancing tango when he was only 4 years and studied multiple
artistic forms such as classical and contemporary dance, theater, and
music.  This training gave him a deep understanding and a thorough mastery
of dance. 
At the age of ten, he and his sister began assisting his mother, Olga Besio,
with her “Tango con Ninos” (Tango for Children) classes. When he was 13 he
became part of a group of teachers and, since then, has not stopped working
professionally as an instructor of dance and Argentine Tango.
He has taught with his sister Ariadne Naveira at the Amsterdam Tangomagia
festival, the International Congress of Argentine Tango (CITA), Pulpo’s
Tango Week, and at the Festival International de Tango Ciudad de La Plata.
He has participated in several festivals organized by the City of Buenos
Aires.  In addition he has worked in the school "Tango Brujo", and has
joined a host of exhibitions in several theaters and almost all the major
milongas in Buenos Aires.
In 2007, Federico worked with Carolina Del Rivero, Mariela Sametband, and
Milena Plebs.  In 2008, he co-founded and directed Estudio Postango, a group
of young tango dancers. 


Inés Muzzopappa 
===============
Inés began dancing tango at age of fourteen at the legendary Club Sunderland
in Villa Urquiza, home of some of the finest Golden Age tango dancers. In
addition to tango, Inés has studied classical dance, song and music,
elements that have given her a thorough artistic grounding and allowed her
to develop a deep understanding of tango.
In 2007 she won the Fifth World Championship of Argentine Tango in the
category of Salon Tango, dancing with Dante Sanchez.  This allowed her to
begin teaching and performing in different national and international
festivals such as Comodoro Rivadavia Tango Festival, Pulpo’s Tango Week and
several festivals organized by the City of Buenes Aires. She has taught in
some of the most recognized Tango schools in Argentina (Studio La Esquina,
Esquela Carlos Copello, Escuela Argentina de Tango).
>From the beginning, Inés has performed in almost all the milongas in Buenos
Aires; dancing with Alejandro Hermida, Bruno, Tombari, and Flaco Danny. In
2008, she became part of a group of young tango dancers, Estudio Postango,
which she co-founded and directed.  These experiences helped distinguish her
as a teacher of tango and were important to the development of her dancing
and her professional growth.

Currently, Inés and Federico are touring the world, performing shows and
teaching at festivals and seminars in Argentina, South America, Europe,
Asia, and the United States, where they are recognized as future leaders of
the worldwide Tango renaissance.
