use "View -> Page Source" to see all the junk characters
that might actually be in the message, but that your browser/mailer
smartly hid from you. Apparently it doesn't work that way
for everyone - sigh! So then you might have to re-type the message,
which is what I am resorting to now. Ok. Enough of that, and on with the
messge.
Tomas Howlin, one of Denver's most favorite Argentines, returns here
for the month of August 2000, with Chantal Dauphinais from Montreal.
Their style is classic and elegant, totally improvised and full of
musicality and fluidity. It is deeply inspired by the traditional
movements that have characterized this dance for the past 50 years.
They are devoted teachers with a unique approach. Their personality,
humor and method of teaching has lasting impact and brings their
students to a new level of understanding the original nature of this
dance. Tomas is well known in Denver for his influence on the close
embrace. As one excellent Denver woman dancer said, "You can tell which
men have studied with Tomas: they learn to take delicious care of the
woman." For the women, Chantal and Tomas stress that following is not
about "responding to the man's needs", rather, it is learning to connect
and work on becoming "one".
Tomas has recently taken over for Pablo Veron at Tango Montreal. He and
Chantal also teach at the famous Cirque du Soleil and will be featured
in a film produced by Canada called "Macadam Tango". Tomas grew up
in Buenos Aires, where he studied with some of the most renowned
teachers such as Graciela Gonzalez, Gustavo Naveira, Osvaldo Zotto, and
Vanina Bilous. Chantal, a dance professional for 20 years, graduated
from the ballet program at "Les Grands Ballets Canadiens". She has
performed for numerous dance companies, touring internationally, and
participated in musicals, television and film productions. She
choreographed for the "Opera de Montreal". With a grant from Le Conseil
des Arts et Lettres du Quebec, Chantal perfected her tango studies in
Buenos Aires (where she met Tomas) with Fabian Salas, Mariano "Chicho"
Frumboli, Claudia Jakobsen, Omar Vega, and Graciela Gonzalez.
