Argentine Tango Workshop with Hsueh-tze Lee

in Memphis, TN Feb. 4-5, 2006



Hsueh-tze, known for her musicality and for her innovative dancing in close
embrace, teaches throughout North America including festivals in Portland,
Seattle, & Denver.  She coined the phrase "nuevo milonguero" to describe the
blending of the traditional with more avant-garde moves in close embrace.
Hsueh-tze is also a North American pioneer in dancing both the leader's and
follower's roles. A life-long dancer, she has been dancing tango since 1990
and is based in Boston. In her classes, Hsueh-tze integrates her knowledge
of dance, physiology and biomechanics to focus on movement dynamics, partner
communication, musicality and improvisation.  She is appreciated for her
enthusiasm, for her skill in establishing a solid foundation as well as
teaching complex moves, and for inspiring her students to become dynamic
social dancers. Hsueh-tze holds a doctorate in physiology from Harvard
University, and won a teaching award as a Harvard Teaching Fellow.  A former
biology professor at Wellesley College, Hsueh-tze currently devotes her
full-time energy to tango.
