Within weeks of his first tango class, Eric Lindgren moved to Buenos Aires and studied tango intensively for a year; he returns regularly to take advantage of the high level of dance and exceptional instruction available in the city. Eric spent the winter of 07-08 teaching at Dance Manhattan and at Providence Tango, and the summer in Toronto. In September 2008 Eric moved to Portland, OR where he enjoys that community’s strong focus on close embrace and emotional expression. Eric has had many influences, including Daniel Trenner, Claudia Bozzo, Carlos Lobos, Rebecca Shulman, Adriana Dure, and Pablo Rodriguez.
Katherine's hybrid expression of tango is derived from the many dance influences in her life. Her interest began as a child, exploring various dance forms; ballet, modern dance, and flamenco. At the age of 18 she began dancing tango in New York City. She is currently partnering Robin Thomas, and has also worked with: Adam Hoopengardner, Felipe Martinez, Henry Finkelstein, and Burak Koyuncu.
Katherine has taught at festivals in the US and in Europe and teaches regularly at Dance Manhattan, Princeton, Hunter College, Yale, and Wesleyan. She is also one of the founding members and organizers of the Hunter College Tango Club, established in 2006. Dancing in Europe, Buenos Aires, and across the United States has contributed to Katherine's inspirational musicality and connection. She brings a youthful energy and sweet madness to the dance floor.
