More about our guest stars:
Adam started dancing tango in 2000 when some college classmates dragged him into a class that “needed more leaders.” Since that moment he was hooked on dance. Adam’s main influence was Alex Krebs who, in 2004, offered him to be his understudy. Taking advantage of this offer Adam studied under Alex directly for a year while assisting in all of Alex’s classes. Adam now teaches in Portland and has focused his dance on musicality, connection, and opening the door for playful opportunities.
To Jenna Rohrbacher, dancing tango is an ongoing search for the complete. Balanced by complexity in movement and purity of sensation, her elegant dance embodies the traditional roles of Argentine tango and beyond. In teaching, Jenna encourages students to discover their individual connections to the music as well as focus on laying a foundation of solid technique upon which they can build their dance. Jenna has taught and performed for the last three years around the U.S. with several acclaimed dancers, including Alex Krebs, Robin Thomas, and Dominic Bridge, and has also performed in Europe and Buenos Aires. In September 2010, Jenna wrote, produced, and directed Tango Éxtasis! for the Miracle Theater’s La Luna Nueva festival in Portland; the following month, she taught and performed at Portland Tango Fest. Jenna is currently in New York teaching classes with Robin Thomas and private lessons.
