</li></ul>Alberto and Valorie recently finished their book "Gotta
Tango" which includes a DVD. This is their first tour since
the book was submitted to print.<br><br>GOTTA TANGO<br>Alberto Paz and Valorie Hart<br><br>The Argentine tango is enjoying an immense growth in popularity around the globe as new generations of social dancers gain inspiration from the creativity and natural elegance of this dance form. Throughout the United States and worldwide, clubs, dance studios, Web sites, and courses are emerging to keep in step with the growing popularity of tango on a social level. Gotta Tango provides this new crop of enthusiasts as well as the existing generation of dancers with a conceptual understanding of moves they can take directly onto the dance floor. The only instructional package of its kind, Gotta Tango is made up of a book and DVD, which combine to teach participants the authentic form of Argentine tango in a progressive, easy-to-follow approach. The book not only encapsulates the cultural and historical background of the Argentine tango, but it also explains why certain moves are executed in a certain manner. The 60-minute DVD supplements the book with visual demonstrations of essential concepts and movements of the tango.
<br><br>Authors Alberto Paz and Valorie Hart are internationally known Argentine tango masters and historians who provide expert instruction while examining the romance, passion, and emotion that fuel the authentic Argentine tango. Gotta Tango gives beginning tango dancers and those who lack a conceptual tango education the confidence and knowledge they need not only to learn the steps but also to connect them in context with the music and with their partners.
<br><br>About the authors Alberto Paz and Valorie Hart own Planet Tango, a school and tango salon located in New Orleans. Together, Paz and Hart conduct master Argentine tango classes as well as lectures and workshops in cities across America and the world. They also publish El Firulete, an online international Argentine tango E-zine in English, and they have been featured dancers on the Buenos Aires TV show Tango Around the World "TANGO NEW ORLEANS STYLE." Paz is a native of Argentina and grew up in the streets of Buenos Aires, while Hart was born in the United States and is ballet trained with experience in both off-Broadway and summer stock. The two met in 1995 during a tango conference and workshop at Stanford University. Since then, the pair has become internationally reputable Argentine tango masters and historians, known for their smooth, creative, and elegant improvisational dancing style. Both authors teach and dance the traditional and modern authentic concepts of improvisation originally developed by the masters in the 1930s, revamped in the 1990s, and practiced by dancers of all ages in the social settings of the Buenos Aires dance halls to this date. Paz and Hart reside in New Orleans.
