Atlanta Tango Special Events

Several times a year we invite remarkable teachers who have something special to offer. We are already working on visiting teachers for the fall of 2008. Stay tuned for updates.
Susana Miller of Buenos Aires and Brigitta Winkler of Berlin have been regulars here, but a variety of other interesting and gifted teachers visit us. In 2008 we have hosted Rubén Harymbat, and in 2007, we hosted:
- Robin Thomas (February)
