Dear Tango Friend,

Marsha and I are very excited to have Ney Melo and Jennifer Bratt from New 
York City and Buenos Aires come to Northern Florida to teach close embrace 
tango.   Ney Melo and Jennifer Bratt dance an elegant style of social tango 
which is rooted in the traditions of the neighborhood of Villa Urquiza in 
Buenos Aires. 
      
Their dance is defined by a smooth and graceful walk, a powerful sense of 
musicality, subtle steps entwined with intricate embellishments, and an 
intimate embrace. Their passion and respect for tango, its culture, and its 
music is clearly evidenced in their emotional dancing, as well as in their 
teaching. 

Ney and Jennifer have studied together with such maestros as Javier 
Rodriguez, Jorge Dispari y Maria del Carmen, Geraldine Rojas, and Julio 
Balmaceda y Corina de la Rosa. Together Jennifer and Ney teach 4 weekly 
group classes in NYC, travel almost every weekend to teach workshops and at 
festivals, and run 3 annual tours to Buenos Aires for dancers (where they 
live for 5 months of the year). 

Their of school of Tango Argentino, EL ABRAZO (which means The Embrace), is 
based in New York City at Empire Dance Studio and in their classes together 
they are dedicated to inspiring students to dance tango with feeling, 
musicality, cadencia, and connection - the way it is danced in Buenos Aires. 
The atmosphere in their classes is relaxed, personable and lively, and they 
place equal emphasis on the lady's role as the men's. 

Technique and the essence of tango, both fundamental to dancing well, are 
stressed in whatever step is being shown. Ney and Jennifer have recently 
taught and performed in Singapore, Malaysia, and Australia, as well as 
extensively all over North America.

We welcome tango dancers from Gainesville and all around the area: Tampa, 
Orlando, Melbourne, Sarasota, Tallahassee, Jacksonville, and St. Augustine, 
Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm, as well as Louisiana, Georgia, South 
Carolina, and North Carolina. (Testimonials from Past Participants)

Classes Friday, October 27:, Saturday, October 28 and Milongas Friday and 
Saturday Nights, with a Live Tango Music Concert on Saturday Night


Please make your calendars for this exciting event.  We will be sending more 
details in the coming weeks.

Tango From The Heart: http://www.gainesvilletango.org

“Dancing is not getting up any time like a speck of dust blown around by the 
wind. Dancing is when you rise above both worlds, tearing your heart to 
pieces and giving up your soul.”

Mevlana Jalal al-din Rumi – Persian Poet

"A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will lose 
both and deserve neither."
THOMAS JEFFERSON
