Throughout more than 30 years, he has shared his passion and knowledge with many notable tango figures. Julia Gorin has been dancing tango since 2000. Her unique method of teaching is the quintessence of her experience not only in tango, but other dance styles.

Thursday, April 3rd. Juan Villarreal and Patricio Crom guitar duo. Juan is a singer, guitarist and composer. Patricio is an arranger, composer, and guitarist. They are one of the most recognized duos of the tango scene in Buenos Aires and the world. They have embarked on countless tours across Latin America, Europe, and North America. They have released many albums and were featured on the cover of “Tangodanza,” the world’s most widely circulated tango magazine. Juan and Patricio join you at VivaTango. This will be just like being present at a milonga in a club in Buenos Aires. DJ Svetlana will spin her whimsical tandas before, between, and after the live sets.

8:30 pm: First live music set by Juan and Pato.

Thursday, April 24th. Cuarteto Rotterdam is one of the most successful European tango groups. They play a perfect mixture of old tango classics, Tango Nuevo, and contemporary Argentine and European tango music. Nowhere else will you hear such concert-like and refined music, which offers everything from melodic to joyous moods. With their creativity, imagination, and experience, this small orchestra conjures up a world of tango for all kinds of emotions. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear and dance to this band. DJ Dimon will play his tandas and keep you dancing between the live sets.

7:00 pm: Milonga starts with DJ DimOn.
8:30 pm: First live music set by Cuarteto Rotterdam.
12Admission: $20. EVENT LINK

FREE EVENTS FOR VOLUNTEERS
VivaTango continues to need help to make events run smoothly. Setup only takes a little time and you do not miss any milonga time. The same is true about cleanup. Working on the welcome desk is a great way to get to know your fellow dancers. The hero of the night is the person who brings the food for the event. If you can help contactSylvie

WATER
We urge dancers to bring their water bottle from home to cut down on single use bottles. There is a chilled water fountain and a cold/hot water dispenser that you can use to refill your water bottle or get a drink to keep you hydrated.

DIRECTIONS
VivaTango is located at 45 Stockton Street, Princeton New Jersey. There is a well-lit, off-street parking lot at the venue. The large dance floor is in the smaller of the two buildings. The venue is easily accessed by rail from NYC and Philly. Just get a ticket to Princeton (not Princeton Junction. You get off the train at Princeton Junction and take the connecting shuttle train to Princeton.) The venue is 8 blocks from the Princeton Train Station with a lovely walk through the Princeton University Campus (0.8 mi.) MAP

Thanks for dancing at VivaTango. If you have any comments, questions or suggestions please email me at  Dennis
