Workshops schedule
Ricardo Viqueira teaches at in the San Francisco Bay Area May 2-22, 2008
He is known for his ease, elegance, masterful footwork and musicality in tango, milonga and vals.
Dancing in the milonguero style, Ricardo emphasizes each dancer's own axis, and their connection to each other. He has developed simple techniques that help the leader mark the step and the follower to understand the lead. He teaches his students the technique to create their own personal style of dance: to recognize opportunities to change direction, and to move with musicality, emphasising pauses and simple rhythmical phrasing.
