Workshop Judy & Jon

WORKSHOP IN AUGUST 2009 with

JUDY & JON

FROM BUENOS AIRES

TANGO MAGDALENA DANCE STUDIO

Judy and Jon have made their home In their adopted porteño city of Buenos Aires since 2003.

They have acquired marvelous skills in their years of study starting in the U.S. and then in Buenos Aires, mastering both tango for exhibition as well as the very different, but perhaps
more important, social Tango de Salon, dancing the music simply with elegance, passion and sentimiento.

They teach and perform regularly in Buenos Aires and are considered authentic milongueros.

Tango is more than just a dance. Judy and Jon - Living and Breathing Tango - are inspirational teachers who give their students the technical tools for movement to build a foundation that enables them to express creatively and musically within the embrace on any dance floor.

            'They have learned what tango is about and now use their skills to help
                students develop into top notch Argentine tango dancers.
                They will simply help you to dance excellently and to understand the Tango better.'
                . . . R. Cook

They recently published 'Tango Body Mechanics' a Step by Step exercise manual for -movement techniques fundamental to dancing Tango, a must read.
