Hi list

I have been seeing emails on Tango-A talking about workshops by some instructors from Argentina but I am not quite sure whether they are really Argentinians or not.
For instance,
Tomas Howlin
Brooke Burdett
Brigitte Winkler

Their names don't sound Argentinian to me! :)

Hi Emir,

Tomas Howlin is Argentinian, living in Montreal (I
think).

Brooke Burdett is an American, living in Argentina.

Brigitta Winkler is German, living in the U.S.

I've studied will all of them and found them to be
good instructors with different approaches.

There might be a nomenclature problem. Brooke is not an Argentine. She's
an American who has lived in Argentina for many years and studied with
the masters.

I found this information on Brigitta's web page.
"Brigitta Winkler lives in New York and Berlin where she trained in
ballet and modern dance. After discovering Argentine tango in 1980.
Brigitte4s teachers in Buenos Aires have included Juan Carlos Copes,
Antonio Todaro, Pepito, Gustavo Naveira, and Eduardo Arquimbau."

For more information, you can do a google search on each instructor and
see what comes up. You don't have to be Argentine to teach Argentine
tango. But it might be helpful if you learned Argentine tango from an
Argentine who dances tango well before you teach.

Do not get caught up in the names. Do some research.

I'd like to add: It might be helpful if you learned Argentine tango from an
Argentine who *teaches* tango *well* before you teach.

Some off the best arg. tango teachers currently are not argentinian (as well
as some are).
