MAURICIO CASTRO WORKSHOPS
IN MINNEPOLIS AUGUST 14-15, 2004.
I'm very glad to introduce Mauricio Castro to the Twin
Cities Tango Community and welcome everyone from the
US and Canada who wants to take advantage of this
opportunity
to learn from Mauricio and to meet our lovely Tango
Community.
We have a group of very good followers and leaders,
many of whom I trained myself and who welcome and look
forward to the opportunity to learn and dance with
good tangueros and tangueras from other tango
communities in North America.
Some brief information follows. More details will be
announced on my website after July 15th.
MAURICIO'S BIO:
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Mauricio Castro is a
dancer and teacher of Argentine Tango and the founder
of Tango Discovery tango school in Buenos Aires.
Maruicio created and developed a personal style of
dancing and teaching tango and then, through Tango
Discovery, he brought it to the rest of the world. To
his solid musical education at the prestigious Berklee
College of Music (Boston, USA), he added contemporary
dance and movement technique studies (Laban Analysis,
Bartenieff Fundamentals and The Skinner Releasing
Technique, among others). He also studied Human
Sciences in Neuro Linguistic Programming, Design Human
Engineering and Human Ecology.
The joining of these disciplines and influences
allowed him to create his particular and unmistakable
style of dancing and teaching, systematizing it into
an innovative method to accelerate the process of
learning to dance.
Breaking out from rigid sequences, his focus is to
develop improvisation skills through a simple and
dynamic technique where students discover not only a
relaxed and released style,
but also a new way of expressing and communicating
with their bodies. The synthesis of his method,
recognized worldwide by hundreds of dancers, is
available not only by attending his classes but also
in his books and cutting-edge multimedia CD-ROMs,
available in several languages.
"From the beginning, Castro insists that the tango may
and should be for anyone, something so pleasurable
and common like breathing".
>From a review of "Tango. The Structure of the Dance
Vol. 1".
>From the newspaper "La Nacion" (10/07/2001).
