Social Argentine Tango deals strongly with connection: connection with your partner, connection to the music, connection to your immediate surroundings and to your community where presumably most of your dances will be happening. Because of this I stress the importance of the embrace, I encourage a dynamic connection between partners, and I foster listening to the music. In tango, the dance and the music are deeply married, if not the quintessential relationship.

Drawing upon my background in the modern dance world, I believe in the evolution of dance and the dancer. I advocate personal exploration by teaching concepts and encouraging students to move beyond learned patterns. Within a positive, fun, and supportive learning environment, I aim to promote confidence as students practice and grow in their individual abilities.

Everyone learns in their own time and I remind my students that there are a lot of layers, as many as they want, like peeling an onion. As dance reflects life so does Argentine Tango - it's fantastic! I enjoy participating in all of my students' journeys as their guide and their mentor.

I have been told by several of my students who are educators in other fields that my teaching style has helped them in their own teaching and that my pedagogical approach can be carried to other learning platforms. They are grateful for having taken more than just tango home with them.
