I am very pleased to announce the return of Raúl Cabral to New York City. A
native of Buenos Aires, Maestro Raúl Cabral is a dedicated teacher, a cultural
envoy, and an exquisite dancer of improvisational social tango, Tango
Milonguero. The essence of his art and teaching is to develop the competence of
each student through amplified awareness of musical rhythm and natural body
movement.
On this visit Agape Pappas will accompany him. Agape’s style fuses a variety of
influences with their own interpretive skills, all emphasized by the type of
improvisation that comes from a deep connection between partners. This
connection is reflected in a teaching style that emphasizes the importance of
walking, balance, focus, musicality, and technique that involves leading with
the heart in both close and open embrace.
Together they will teach two workshops on Sunday October 24th and a special
class with a guided practica on Tuesday October 26th. During their brief visit
they will be available for a limited number of private classes. Please contact

workshops and the special class and to book your private class.
