BRIGITTA - Queer Tango Festivalito
June 1st-3rd 2018


Brigitta is an amazing woman. She has studied, explored and lived tango, dance, and somatics for 30 years. One of the first people to study in Buenos Aires in the early 1980’s, she later contributed to the Berlin tango scene and opened a dance studio in 1986 with her partners. She studied Alexander technique and completed the 4 year Body Mind Centering, and she incorporates both techniques into her teaching. Brigitta is a founding member of Tango Mujer and they have toured all over the USA. She is a frequent teacher in Russia and since 1995 has taught all over North America with her home base split between New York City and Berlin in both Queer Tango and regular events. She organizes annual Leading Ladies Tango retreats in Italy and Hawaï. www.brigittatango.de and www.tangomujer.com
