Raquel Greenberg Dancer, Master Instructor and Choreographer Argentine Tango

Background

Raquel started her dance career from an early age, having received formal ballet and contemporary dance training. In 1991 she started Latin and ballroom studies, received the IDTA diploma (international dance teachers association) and competed in international dance competitions such as the prestigious Blackpool congress in England. It was in 1998 that she discovered and was swept away by the Argentine tango and she has studied in Buenos Aires with tango greats such as Carlos Gavito and Osvaldo Zotto. Raquel is an accomplished Tango performer with an impressive international track record. In the UK her performances have included appearances with Tanghetto at the O2, the Orion Philharmonic orchestra at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, at the Argentinean Embassy-hosted events during the 2012 Olympics and recently at the iconic Blackpool Tower Ballroom. Raquel’s teaching style strikes a seemingly effortless balance between individual technique exercises and work on specific moves in couples. The very popular Raquel Greenberg Tango Academy runs classes in a variety of central London locations throughout the week. Visit http://www.raquel-tango.com/ for more information. Her school is also regularly host to internationally renowned Tango artist such as the legendary 77-year old Flaco Dany and Pablo Veron, who shot to fame with the 1997 film “The Tango lesson”.
