Tango Trip to Buenos Aires 3 - 17 January 2024: Tango Salon workshop with Andres "Tanguito" Cejas

 We are extremely proud and happy to introduce our first teacher, and our first highlight of the TANGO TRIP TO BUENOS AIRES 3 - 17 JANUARY 2024!

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.

GUSTAVO REMBER

With a background as singer, and educated as Engineer, and Economics and Math teacher, he started dancing tango in 2003, after listening to tango his whole childhood.

Among HIS TEACHERS we may mentioned: Gabriela Elías, Horacio Godoy, Carlos Copello, Fabián Peralta, Natacha Poberaj, Carlos Pérez, Cecilia García, Mariela Sametband, Moira Castellano, Chicho Frúmboli y Juana Sepúlveda

Summarizing HIS PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY as teacher, dancer and organizer we may mentioned:
- Teacher at La Viruta Tango and Nueva Escuela Argentina del Tango (both institutions among the most well known in the tango scene in Buenos Aires)
- Organizer of the famous Misterio Tango Festival from 2009 until 2018 in Buenos Aires
- Workshops/Performances all around Argentina, Uruguay, England, Sweden, and USA.
- Performances in all the traditional milongas in Bs As (La Milonguita, La Viruta, Canning. Maldita Milonga, Soho Tango, DNI tango, etc).....and the rest of Argentina.

HIS STYLE combines the best of traditional tango and new tango, in a very playful and musical way. Because of his permanent participation in the milongas, he has developed an exquisite sense about tango as a social dance, dancing in reduced spaces, and able to adapt to different styles, partners, and circumstances, as very few professional dancers are able to do. And that is why we have chosen him to introduce this important subject in one of the classes of our trip.

==========================================

CORINA DE LA ROSA

       Professional tango dancer, teacher and choreographer, born in Buenos Aires 1970 where she still has her base. After Classical and modern dance formation, she started dancing tango 1995. 

       Worldwide known after many years of teaching/performing all over the world in tango festivals and major theaters, like Carnegie Hall, among the many highlights in her career we can just mention her performances in Broadway with Forever Tango.

      She created her own school and studio in Buenos Aires and continues traveling frequently abroad to USA, Asia and Europe.

       In the last years Corina developed an exhaustive research about body consciousness, and started teaching Gyrotonics and Gyrokinesis, a discipline added to her studio that became an integral formation center for tango dancers.

GYROTONICS

       The Gyrotonics Method is an original and unique movement method that addresses the entire person, opening energy pathways, stimulating the nervous system, increasing range of motion and flexibility, and improving balance, strength and movement efficiency. 

      Using special equipment, each of these circular, wave and spiral movements flows into the next in carefully crafted sequences practiced in a small group.
      Studio de La Rosa Tango & Gyrotonics offers group gyrotonic sessions for four persons under the instruction of a qualified Gyrotonic Trainer
