Movements contrary to the dancing line is prohibited. Couples respect other couples dancing next to them without oppressing the other couple's space. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain movement within the ronda. In all categories, except for "Tango-Nuevo", it is recommended to keep a close distance between the dancers in a pair and not to use dancing elements that go beyond the space of the pair, for example, a high boleo. The music is selected by the organizers depending on the category and it includes 2-3 compositions in each round. In the "Tango Mix" category, couples dance 3 dances with the music of tango, tango vals and tango milonga. ATTENTION: registration in this category is possible in case the person participates in these three categories: "Salon Tango”, "Tango Vals", "Tango Milonga". In the "Milonguero" category, the participants switch pairs in the order unknown to them, but which is regulated by the organizers. In the "Tango-Nuevo" category, participants can use any elements, including supports, high boleos, hug breaks, as long as it does not put in danger couples around them. In the "Tango Show" category, couples show in advance prepared choreography to the music chosen on their own. The melody must not last more than 4 minutes and must be sent to the DJ before the end of the registration time for this category. Be sure to use a flash card with a USB output and the file in mp3 format. (Please contact the organizers in advance if you have any difficulties or questions: [email protected]) Each couple shows their choreography on the dance floor separate from other participants.

  • Tango Levels: the 22 Techniques of Tango
    Tango Levels: The 22 Techniques of Tango A proposed framework to support growth and learning by Mitra Martin "Chaos can't sustain itself. It's too easy, and it's too unsatisfying." ­ Jon Stewart 1. Introduction 2. Tango’s Techniques 3. How Is My Technique? 4. How to Improve: Technique and Movement 5. Tango Process 6. A Note to Teachers 7. Next Steps 8. Assessment Tool 1. Introduction This text exists to provide help to dancers who want to know what they need to do in order to improve their skills in Tango, and teachers who want ideas on how to help their students. In the process of endeavoring to establish a Tango school we have noticed many students of Tango being confused about what to focus on, and as a result losing motivation. In the absence of clear, objective, trustworthy frameworks for growth provided by experienced dancers, learners will often invent their own, which can be misleading or incoherent, and lead to wasted energy. When we (somewhat hesitantly) instituted our first objective test of skills, the “200 level exam,” it was interesting to notice how productive, engaged, and curious learners became in the process of preparing for the exam. They would attend classes and take lessons more often, ask more thoughtful questions, ask people to practice with them, engage more deeply with teacher’s feedback. Defining, maintaining and defending class levels has been a conundrum for teachers. Most students are not able to accurately self­assess, so they go to the wrong classes. Classes cannot be taught at an “Advanced” level if they are filled up with dancers who are beginners.

That’s what I thought back in September as I sat in my dorm room brainstorming potential paper topics for my ID1 Seminar, “Tripping the Light Fantastic: A History of Social and Ballroom Dance.” Tango was an obvious choice to respond to a prompt, which read, “Write about any dance form you find interesting.” I’d been fascinated with the tango ever since I’d learned about the dance’s history in a high-school seminar on Modern Latin America and subsequently tried the dance myself in one of Buenos Aires’ famous dance halls. The Jewish element was, however, my attempt to add some personal element and to answer my own curiosity about a question that had been nagging at me ever since I heard my first tango music.

(This is not the club-style Tango Eduardo sometimes teaches in workshops.) The first tape covers the basics including the proper embrace and elementary steps. The video quality is high and so is the instruction. The voice over is a bit dramatic and sometimes slightly out of synch with the steps. The tapes are a somewhat expensive for the amount of material covered, but this is a good series for anyone just starting in Tango.

Luego de analizar ciertos aspectos que caracterizan y rigen los procesos de patrimonialización contem- poráneos, relevamos las principales normativas y actividades culturales instituidas en torno al tango. Posteriormente, nos concentramos en el desarrollo de una sucesión de políticas públicas y actividades vinculadas a festivales y campeonatos de baile en la ciudad de Buenos Aires. Asimismo, exploramos las construcciones y los sentidos de “autenticidad” en distintas dimensiones culturales. Por un lado, nos enfocamos en el “turismo cultural” vinculado al tango en la ciudad, mientras que, por otro lado, analizamos los sentidos otorgados a las performances de tango-danza de salón en el contexto de los campeonatos ofi ciales.

  • Vortrag / Workshop – Edo Für Tänzer
    argentango Zürich, September 2013 Dear organisers of Argentine tango, recently an interested organiser said that he is quite enthusiastic about Argentangos weekend on the Gran Orquestas of the Epoca de Oro, but has organised Joaquin Amenábar already. He could not imagine that it would make sense to schedule Argentango as well as Amenábar. Besides, since autumn 2012 there has been a book from Michael Lavocah on the market about the Gran Orquestas. We are sure that in short time we will hear that Argentangos lecture weekend does not make sense anymore, because now one can read Michael Lavocah’s book. This view of the topic is too one dimensional for Argentango. The workshop GOs of the EdO has as its key element dancing with the music instead of against it for 90% of dances. This is something that few can achieve in one or two weekend events and/or a book. Once introduced, this topic keeps dancers occupied for years, on different levels of knowledge – and in our opinion for the rest of the dancing life. It is not a coincidence that in Europe there now exists a chance on three different paths to introduce concepts which in most common classes are missed out. For two or three years now Europe has finally been ready for this central topic in Argentine tango, this catalyst in the development of dance. The different concepts and exercises, pictures and words from the three complementary paths will increase the prospects of dancers which use these offers together. That is why we from Argentango recommend warmly to organisers in every local scene, not to decide between Amenábar or Argentango, but to realise both offers and in parallel to recommend the book of Lavocah over and over again to their dancers and to have it always on stock for selling.

  • MEET the INSTRUCTORS Alicia and Eduardo the Dancers Alicia And
    MEET THE INSTRUCTORS Alicia and Eduardo The dancers Alicia and Eduardo Lazarowski grew up in Buenos Aires and moved to North Carolina in 1986 to pursue their careers in health sciences. Eduardo, a biochemist, is an associate professor at UNC Chapel Hill. Alicia is global marketing manager at a medical diagnostics company in Durham. And they love and dance tango, the music of their hometown. Alicia and Eduardo became members of the Raleigh- Durham-Chapel Hill (The Triangle) tango community since 2002 and both have served as President of Triangle Tango between 2008-2013. The Lazarowskis travel regularly to Buenos Aires and through the U.S. to train with world-renowned dancers and instructors, including Alicia Pons, Lorena Ermocida, Fernanda Japas & Alberto Sendra, Facundo Posadas, Oscar Casas, Marcela Duran, Luis Rojas, and Tomas Howlin. Alicia and Eduardo have been regular Argentine tango performers at the NC International Festival (Raleigh NC) since 2007, and have also performed at Duke University and NC Central University (Durham NC), Craven Community College (New Bern NC), and the Spoleto Tango Festival (Charleston SC). They have danced with Maestro bandoneonist Julian Hasse at Music at the Porch (UNC Chapel Hill) and the Diamante Latino festival (Raleigh) and with singer Lorena Guillan at the Triad Stage Theater in Greensboro (NC). Milonga organizers Alicia and Eduardo organized the Milonga del Ocho at Metro 8 (2010-2012) and Pichuqueando at Piazza Italia (2012-2013) in Durham. They currently organize Milonga La Durhamite in Triangle Dance Studio every 4th Friday of the month. DJs Alicia and Eduardo have been mentored and inspired in the art of musicalizing by Osvaldo Natucci (international DJ and lecturer), Lorena Bouzas (DJ at Club Gricel, Buenos Aires), and Carlos Rey (DJ at El Beso, Buenos Aires).
