SUSANA MILLER IN TORONTO_MAY 2011

MAY WITH MILONGUERA MILLER!

Susana Miller is considered the most prominent teacher in the world today of the "milonguero" style of tango or what Argentines call "apilado." It is a strictly social style that emphasizes musicality and the connection between partners. Susana has researched and studied this style through the dancing of the older milongueros, each of whom
has created a unique way to tango. She has been able to decipher their distinct vocabularies and choreographic combinations, and found a way to transmit these to students.

Susana is a native of Buenos Aires and has been dancing and teaching tango since the its revival in the late 1980s. She founded and operates her own tango academy in Buenos Aires, and is the owner of one of B.A.'s most popular tango clubs, El Beso. She has made annual teaching tours to the United States and Europe since 1994. She will help students improve posture, axis, grounding, breathing, balance, and sensitivity to the lead and follow roles. She aims to encourage dancers to develop their own unique improvisational styles through knowledge of the music, space and body.

THANK YOU!

DEAR TANGO FRIENDS!                                                                                                               

Thank you very much for being with us at Paradiso’s 14th anniversary celebration on Friday April 22! 

We are grateful for your patronage over the years – sharing our love for tango, supporting us through thick and thin and helping us grow. We hope to be always able to offer you a warm and welcoming atmosphere, a friendly smile and lots, lots of great tango music and dancing.

Paradiso was very fortunate to host a workshop for maestro Alberto Dassieu from Buenos Aires in a joint venture with La Cachila: we appreciate this cooperation and your enthusiastic support of maestro’s classes. Here are the links to Alberto’s tango demonstration with Irene Ho at Paradiso’s anniversary. Enjoy!
