- Tango Academy of
Pasadena. "The Academy was founded in 1996, aiming primarily
at educating and teaching the very essence of the true Tango de Buenos
Aires. As an educator, Jorge Luis leads his students through the path of
recognition of the truth within themselves as a part of their journey
towards freedom, which is the uncompromised step prior to reach
completeness as a tango dancer. "Authentic Argentine Tango, Milonga,
Candombe and Vals" is taught exclusively by Argentine instructors, who
will introduce you to what makes Argentine Tango a sublime expression of
art. "Beginner, Intermediate, Intermediate-Advanced and Advanced" levels
offered by the Tango Academy of Pasadena prioritize on musicality,
interaction and communication between partners. The intention of the
dance, character and individuality in concept, interpretation of the
music, redefinition of corporal expression, is taught at the academy.
This program emphasizes not on predictable steps and figures, nor just
on learning how to dance, but in a much broader spectrum of concepts
that this art form known as the Argentine Tango has to offer. The
student learns to Tango. Argentine Tango is a language to be spoken
through your emotions. Once the student immerses himself in the language
of tango, the transformation begins." (New
