Dear Friends,

Jaimes Friedgen is coming back to Houston! This time for a
longer period of time-three weeks. He is going to be here with
his teaching partner, Christa Rodriguez.

Their visit will be a huge contribution to Houston's tango
community, and will further our dream of creating more tango
dancers and taking the dance skills of those who already dance
to the next level.  In addition to all the classes & workshops
we are going to have both teachers at our practicas and milongas

Please reserve these dates for your tango schedules and let your
friends know about it.

About Jaimes & Christa

Jaimes is one of the most inspiring tango dancers in the United
States. Over many years he has studied with a wide variety of
teachers, but his two main influences are Angel Echeveria and
Mariano "Chicho" Frumboli. He is sought out for his creativity
and deep insight into the inner workings of the dance. A dancer of
extraordinary accomplishment, Jaimes is hailed for his beautiful
movement and musicality. He is driven to be a full time tango
teacher by his love of watching people continually grow and blossom
through their exploration of tango, and feels very fortunate to
be a part of that process;

Christa has been dancing for over many years, she is an
extraordinary teacher and dancer. She is one of the most
influential dancers in the city of Seattle and serves as the
primary inspiration for a whole generation of dancers. Christa
takes great pride in the progress of her students and continues
to pursue her study of dance as a student and a teacher.
