This week please welcome Eric Lindgren and Rebecca Rorick Smith (from Portland, OR).
DJ Tine plays your favorite music.
Special $6 Mojitos & Sangria to put some swing in your tango!
Rebecca Rorick Smith has been dancing all over the Northwest since 1999. She has offered tango classes through Southern Oregon University and Linfield college and helped facilitate the not-for-profit Tango Center in Eugene for many years. She has worked with the University of Oregon, Yale, and University of Michigan. In 2008 she taught in Mumbai, Bangalore, and New Delhi. Her teaching has taken her throughout the United States, England, and Canada. Rebecca has been fortunate to work with many great dancers and spend ample time in Argentina resulting in a comprehension of the dance widely respected by her peers.
Within weeks of his first tango class, Eric 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.
Thank you for your support!
