Subject: NA-W: Juan Carlos Copes in Los Angeles!
REGISTRATION REMINDER:
Juan Carlos Copes' two classes in Los Angeles are filling up fast. I can
accept only nine more reservations for the Friday class. There is still a
little more room in the Tuesday class. If you plan to attend either, please
call or e-mail ASAP to make sure that you are on the list. I cannot
guarantee any space for people who show up at the door without a
reservation. (And if you made a reservation and find that you will be unable
to attend, I would appreciate knowing so that I can give your space to
someone else.) Once again, here are the details:
THE LEGENDARY JUAN CARLOS COPES!
Friday, September 22 (8 - 9:30 p.m.) & Tuesday, September 26, (8:15 - 9:45
p.m.); $30 per person, per class
Academy 331
530 N. La Cienega (1/2 block south of Melrose)
West Hollywood
The Maestro makes a rare Los Angeles appearance to attend the "Dance on Film
Awards," for which he is nominated for his choreography for Carlos Saura's
Oscar-nominated film, "Tango" (he also co-starred). We are delighted that he
has agreed to teach two classes for us. Maestro Copes is arguably the most
famous tango performer in the world. He is also a remarkably beautiful
social dancer, having learned his craft in the milongas of his youth. In our
humble opinion, he possesses one of the most amazing upper bodies of any man
in tango. Just to watch him is an invaluable learning experience. The
maestro will focus on his special brand of technique and elegance for the
social floor.
Recently voted in a poll of more than 12,000 Buenos Aires residents as the
greatest tango dancer of the 20th Century, Juan Carlos Copes is known as the
father of performance tango or "tango ballet." His credits and awards as a
professional dancer are too numerous to list, but he is perhaps best known
in this country as the star and principal choreographer of "Tango
Argentino." Through his many shows, movie and television performances, he
has served as tango's ambassador to the world. He is truly one of
Argentina's national treasures. Don't miss this rare opportunity to study
with a living legend of tango!
Juan Carlos Copes will also be our special guest at Salon Recuerdo on
Thursday, September 21. Come and help us welcome the Maestro to Los
Angeles--8 p.m. to midnight, Culver City Masonic Lodge, 9635 Venice Blvd.
(between Overland and Main/Bagley). $10 per person includes dancing to the
greatest orchestras of the "Golden Age of Tango" and refreshments For more
information, see our website at www.apurotango.com, or call (323) 650-0509.
