For beginners to advanced dancers.Daniel Trenner is a native New Yorker, who in his decade of experience exploring Tango in Argentina has unraveled its mysteries and developed a key for understanding the code of this lovely dance. His unique teaching style is based on translating the culture of Argentine social dance. He teaches games and exercises for understanding the principles of lead and follow, while relating the antidotes and stories of the older dancers, or milongueros, he interviewed in Buenos Aires. His tango is greatly influenced by his extensive contact with the milonguers during the past ten years. His teachers include Miguel and Nelly, Antonio Todaro, Mingo and Esther Pugliese, Joan Bruno, Pepito Avellendda, Roldolfo and Maria and Tomi O'Connell.
