Argentine Tango Workshop with Ney Meló
May 7th - 8th

Toe to Toe is pleased to present Argentine Tango instructor Ney
Meló for a weekend of workshops.

Ney Melo is among the best of the new generation of Argentine
Tango dancers. His "close-embrace" tango style mixes traditional
and nuevo tango. He studied in Buenos Aires, and was influenced
early on by Roberto Herrera (posture, walk, elegance), Chicho
Frumboli (musicality), & Mingo Pugliese (structure of tango).

Ney has become a highly requested teacher for his clear
explanations and enthusiastic attitude. He currently teaches a
full Argentine Tango program (beginner thru advanced courses)
at Stepping Out Studios in New York City.

Ney has also taught internationally in Singapore, Malaysia,
Australia was recently invited to teach at the upcoming Portland
Valentango Festival (website) in February 2005 and the Toronto
International Tango Festival (website) in May 2005.
