A few months ago I was looking for the same. I don't remember finding anything
about teaching the dance itself. I found some info on some contemporary
artists that have recorded chacareras, but thought that what I found looked
very incomplete in terms of what might be available in Argentina.

Here are my notes from that search (see below). They are heavily biased
towards Duo Coplanacu simply because they seemed to have recorded more
chacareras. I haven't bought any of the CDs yet..

If anyone in Argentina has a better idea on where to get chacarera CDs and
who the best artists are for that, please write. Also, please comment on Duo
Coplanacu and the others below if you know their work. Thank you!

Argentinean folk group Duo Coplanacu was formed in 1985 by singer/guitarist
Roberto Cantos and singer/percussionist Julio Paz, who moved from their native
Santiago del Estero to Crdoba to start playing together. After issuing a
self-titled album in 1991, followed by Retiro Al Norte, the duet was joined by
violinist Andrea Leguizamn, making Paisaje in 1997 and Desde Adentro in
1999. A year later, a live album recorded at la Trastienda was released under
the name of El Encuentro. ~ Drago Bonacich, All Music Guide
