TEACHERS

The classes are coordinated by Daniel Mandita and Amalia Iscu. Dan and Amalia are self-made dancers who believe in learning by dancing. They started dancing late in their lives and are familiar with the difficulties and problems that adult beginners have to overcome. They firmly believe that tango should always be improvised and never memorized.

While Dan is keen on analyzing structures and explaining them thoroughly, Amalia gives you personalized feedback uniquely suitable for your body and your own individual way of moving.

Dan and Amalia teach the basics of tango, and then follow up with structures useful for practicing your technique. For experienced dancers they practice and encourage introspection and self-discovery in order to help you find your inner centre of improvisation.
