Tango Videos!

So, I can work a camera after all! Check out my new YouTube channel, with some of the best performances from Corazon!

I'm especially proud of the videos of Tete y Silvia and Martha y Manolo; they are true legends, and it was my honor to host them. There was an amazing crowd to welcome them, which was even better - thanks to everyone who helped make it such a memorable night!

(I also have video clips from the class where Tete made everyone boogie to jazz music - awesome!)

There are pictures to come, but for now, enjoy one of Tete y Silvia's performances, and check out the rest of the videos on YouTube! I'll be posting them every week I remember to take them. If you want to be updated when I put up a new batch, check back here often or join my mailing list! (You can sign up on the sidebar; it's low-traffic, I promise.)

This Week at Corazon: Jorge Torres

Jorge Torres - the legend! (Or so he says.) Star of Forever Tango, master choreographer, snappy dresser; Jorge is one of tango's most accomplished ambassadors, having danced his way across the globe in tango shows and workshop series. We've been lucky to have him in New York from time to time, but Forever Tango is currently on tour and it's been a long time since he's been around...

Luckily, Corazon has managed to convince him to come back! Jorge is stopping by New York for only a few days before flying out again on tour, and he'll be at Corazon this Wednesday.

Anyone who has taken classes with him knows he teaches an elegant style of social dance and provides individual attention to each student in a relaxed atmosphere - expect to laugh!

It's his only group class while he's in town, so check him out before he's gone.




Even better, Chino will be visiting, showing off her newest NeoTango shoes direct from Buenos Aires! Stop by the Felina Shoes display and try on that pair you've been dreaming of.

See you Wednesday at Corazon - a taste of Buenos Aires in New York!
