TANGO SALON WORKSHOP
WITH ANDRES "TANGUITO" CEJAS
Master of masters, he is one of the top level worldwide referents of Tango Salon style.
This year 2023, Andres has celebrated his 30 years with Tango, with a big Tango fest in Buenos Aires that reunited the greatest tango teachers and dancers, colleagues and friends, and old and young milongueros.
Main disciple of the legend Osvaldo Zotto, and responsible to transmit his style to the young generations. Style that was recorded by Zotto and Tanguito in the first ever tango course on video, that became a learning source and inspiration in the beginning of the 90´s for all professional dancers in Argentina and all around the world afterwards.
Being son of a tango singer, he was introduced professionally to tango very young, and started dancing at age 17. Among his teachers we can mention the old milongueros and two of the greatest's creators in all Tango dance history Antonio Todaro and Pepito Avellaneda.
Since 1995 he has danced together with Genoveva Fernandez. They worked with the most prestigious tango orchestras, Mariano Mores, Jose Colangelo, Sexteto Mayor.
It is Impossible to summarize the multiple artists he worked with, the multiple scenes all around the world where he performed, or the many tango schools and Festivals where he was teaching.
Just as an example of the extremely high quality of his dancing and teaching: In 2017 he got the highest in all types of dances distinction in Argentina, Maria Ruanova prize, by Consejo Argentino de La Danza (Argentine Dance Council) award given to only one dancer every year. As organizer, he created and holds maybe the most prestigious practica in Buenos Aires, De Querusa, that of course we will visit on our trip.
