About the seminar

Fabián & Lorena have created a complete "tango seminar" especially for this occasion. The seminar consists of 9 workshops, each 90 minutes. All themes match together to make the perfect combination in learning with these two tango masters.
The three pilars of their seminar are:

Technique
(posture, embrace, balance, body awareness);
Musicality
(Fabián & Lorenas speciality -- phrasing, rythm, pauses, adornos, breathing);
Tango Salón style
(combinations that are typical for creating this elegant and intreging style of dancing, called tango salón).

The more workshops you join, the more you will understand and FEEL the tango vision of these two masters. This is why we choose to work with one master couple instead of 4 or more as many other festivals. To give you the chance to fully immerge in their feeling of the dance... and be inspired for 100%!  You can make your own program, depending on your time & energy, you can choose from "light pass" to "full pass". All passes include entrance to Friday, Saturday, Sunday parties and tango cafés the whole weekend.
