Chas will DJ, there will be performances by Chas & Gaia and by Nina & Grisha. After 13 years in tango, misinformation is the only constant we have found in the tango community. Please disregard any information about The Tango House or Chas & Gaia that does not come directly from The Tango House or Chas & Gaia. This wonderful historic landmark continues to thrive, evolve, and grow as one of the world's premier Argentine Tango venues. As the scope and focus of The Tango House continues to expand, so do, albeit on different trajectories, our personal lives. Where and when Chas and I travel remains to be determined. Let it suffice to say that you should not be surprised to see us at milongas anywhere in the world in the immediate future. From Johannesburg to Tokyo, from Moscow to New York City, we look forward to seeing again the many friends we have met during our tenure in this wonderful venue.

Maximiliano Gluzman and Heather Whitehead will teach a series of interesting workshops this Saturday November 7th and Sunday November 8th. Space is limited and I have already received a few registrations so I encourage you to pre-register now if you wish to attend. This will also help ensure proper gender balance. Please email me at francescabl25 at gmail.com to register or if you have any questions. This is the schedule and location of the workshops: 939 8th Avenue, 2nd floor (buzzer 200) Saturday November 7th 3:00 - 4:30 INTERMEDIATE-ADVANCED. WALTZS & IMPROVISATION: For the social tango dancer, improvisation is both a need to navigate as well an element of creativity. In this lesson we will practice several ideas that will act as improvisation boosters, consequently making us find new and personal steps. 4:30 - 6:00 MUSICALITY: RHYTHM, PAUSE, AND PHRASE. This lesson is an introduction to advanced musicality in the language of the Buenos Aires milonga. We will base our work in rhythm and the way it lives in the dancer's body, pause as a necessary, but not necessarily explicit, element of the musical representation, and phrase, as a vehicle of connection with the melody. Sunday November 8th 3:00 - 4:30 INTERMEDIATE ? ADVANCED. UNUSUAL OCHOS. We have been struggling with/enjoying ochos since our first days of tango! Now did we exhaust the possibilities of this trademark of tango? In this lesson we will take ochos a step ahead by combining, twisting, repeating or isolating them. 4:30 - 6:00 MILONGA DANCE AND ITS RHYTHMIC PATTERNS. In this lesson we will learn about the different approaches to milonga through some of the most dance floor-effective rhythmic patterns. The concepts of traspie, lisa and combinada will be put into the context of the search of the social dancer. One workshop $35. Two workshops in the same day/couples $60 Maximiliano will be available to teach private classes. Please contact Francesca at 917-815-5807 or francescabl25 at gmail.com to inquire and book.

ENRIQUETA KLEINMAN BIO Enriqueta Kleinman is an artist by profession. She is a teacher and dancer of tango ? ?Milonguero Style?, and also a singer of tango music. She is also a teacher of drawing and painting and a painter. In tango, Enriqueta has had different teachers that have indelible tracks in her. She investigated with each one of them styles and concepts. This is their concept of the dance and their teachings transformed into her own. Her teachers included teachers such as: Carlos Gavito (?technique for the woman?, Roberto ?Pocho? Carreras, Nely Fernando, Ana Maria Shapira, and Susana Miller. It is with Susan Miller that Enriqueta ?learned how to teach?. With time and more so by teaching other disciplines, Enriqueta developed her own pedalogical method. With a solid foundation in technique and musicality, Enriqueta gives classes to men and women of tango, waltz and milonga. She puts the accent in the structure that makes it possible that one?s expression appears and develops. Enriqueta travels tiredlessly and has travelled teaching through many cities of the United States and Canada: Chicago; Seattle; Portland; Ann Arbor, Michigan; Tucson, Arizona; Iowa City; San Francisco; San Diego; Toronto, Vancouver, etc. She has also participated in the following tango festival: May Madness (Ann Arbor), Valentengo (Portland), Tucson Tango Festival, and the Chicago Mini Tango Festival.. Enriqueta is the owner of a charismatic personality. She transmits her passion to her students and motivates them to dance ?what they feel in their soul and put it into their body?. She is beloved and respected by her students. She establishes strong principles and she generates a climate of intense but pleasant and amusing work.

Fabian and Gustavo Naviera initiated the nuevo tango movement in the eighties through years of painstaking research and hard work. They moved this great dance from the static realm to a dynamic art and opened many new avenues for us. Today, tango enjoys massive success due in large part to the work of these two maestros. Don?t miss a rare opportunity to take lessons from these great instructors and from Argentina and also watch them perform. Fabian is also the founder and organizer of the largest tango festival in Argentina, CITA. Now in its 12th year, the event brings in hundreds of dancers from all over the world to Buenos Aires from March 14-21. The instructors at the festival are in the top category in the world and it is a reflection of how much importance Fabian puts into the quality of workshops. As a special thank you to all of you who have supported us over the past year, we have instituted a program whereby you can register now and pay in cash at the studio during the workshop weekend.

Yay! ***Tell Us About your Experience The Feedback Form is now online, so please go to it and tell us your thoughts. Although we're not planning to organize another event anytime soon, I doubt we'll be able to stay away from organizing forever, and we take your ideas and suggestions very seriously. (For example, the idea for this year's Mixer Milonga came directly from a submission of last year's feedback form. A shoutout to Brian Doughty for that awesome suggestion.) ***The Monster Orchestra Because we love the Monster Orchestra so much, we recorded the live performance this year and will make it available as a CD. If you also love them and want to support the creation of live tango music for dancers, please buy a CD! They are $10 each, and proceeds will go right back to the musicians. Pre-order a CD here so we know how many to make. ***Photos and Videos Videos and photos of the event by Marty Katz, Sorin Varzaru, Alejandro Almanza and others will be available soon through the TdlM website. If you're on Facebook, you may have already seen some of the photos people have posted there. (If you yourself posted photos, please upload the photos to the Tango de los Muertos Facebook group so that everyone can see them!) If you took videos of the performances, please pass them on to us.

With a solid foundation in technique and musicality, Enriqueta gives classes to men and women of tango, waltz and milonga.

He is a popular and attentive teacher. His current focus is to develop Tango Nuevo analysis methods and to understand and teach the essence of Argentine Tango more effectively to general public audience. Though he is considered a virtuoso of "Tango Nuevo", in his dancing Burak is not adding anything new or "modern" to Tango. Every movement he uses is taken strictly from the Tango vocabulary. He respects the music and responds in the traditional places; his syncopa, or rhythm, is flawless. What he does is deconstruct the usual tango marcado (marking) and reconstruct it in his own surprising way. Burak?s nontraditional use of the vocabulary prompts curiosity, and inspiration for other dancers. He is the creator of prestigious Tango events,in North AmericaTango Joven Festival 2006-2007, Chicago Tango Week 2008-2009, Miami Beach Tango Marathon 2010 and Burak's Tango Week 2010. He also co-founded the ARTango Center in Chicago. Although he is based in Chicago, he frequently tours US and Canada for teaching, djing and dancing. www.tangoeclectique.com www.miamitangomarathon.com www.burakstangoweeek.com From tangodancers at comcast.net Sat Nov 14 01:07:57 2009 From: tangodancers at comcast.net (Tango Dancers) Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2009 01:07:57 -0500 Subject: [Tango-A] NA-E: Maximiliano Gluzman Saturday, November 14, at El Beso Milonga Message-ID: <856A4E3F-2C19-4111-82DB-746A7BA3F019@comcast.net> Maximiliano Gluzman in New Jersey at El Beso Milonga Saturday, November 14, 2009 We are very pleased to announce that Maximiliano Gluzman will be in New Jersey/Philadelphia now and the first week of December.

About Melina & Detlef: Melina Sed? and Detlef Engel teach and dance Tango Argentino, Milonga con Traspi? and Tango-Vals worldwide. Stylistically, they are at home in the traditional tango de sal?n, as it is danced in Buenos Aires, and which they interpret in a very personal and modern way. Their dance captivates through its intimate embrace, playful musicality and an almost puristic elegance: a sensual interplay of man and woman without clich? or superficial effect. Thus, their tango is newly created in every single moment, and does not just express the music, but genuine feeling. At the core of their lessons, which are always geared towards improvisational capability, are intensive body work and analysis of tango?s structures. But ?technical? understanding is just a means to concentrate better on the essential: developing one?s own style and relishing the embrace in unison with the music. Detlef's and Melina's homeregion is SaarLorLux+, where their dedication and their unique teaching concept have set standards over the years 2001 - 2007.

Now there's a way to document those beautiful evenings so they can be savored for years to come: A Tango Diary. Whether it?s used for writing down the dances to remember, recalling perfect tandas, or making class notes, A Tango Diary ably plays the roles of confidante and resource. Designed to slide easily into a pocket or shoe bag, A Tango Diary comes hand-bound in durable linen bookcloth (a few are in Moroccan leather) with images of Portland?s storied Viscount Ballroom, where thousands of tangueros have danced, on the front and back covers. Inside the covers are two pockets for milonga handbills, notes, and business cards. The text features letterpress printing and Nideggen mouldmade paper from Germany. Limited to an edition of 50, each copy of A Tango Diary is numbered and stamped with the binder?s seal. For pictures, specifications, and info, visit http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=34796075. Among the future projects is a limited-edition "reader's guide" to Astor Piazzolla's 1987 concert in Central Park. As part of my ongoing research for the project, I would love to hear from those who were at the concert or have any special memories or experiences attached to the event or the recording itself.
