Pablo Inza and Sophia Saborido Workshops in Sydney
 Direct from Argentina, tango teachers and performers Pablo Inza and Sophia Saborido are touring Sydney from September 5 - 8! Click on the link for details of the workshops of Pablo and Sophia I remember Pablo when he toured Sydney back in the early 2000s and he was an amazing dancer even back then. The wealth of experience that he will have to offer Sydney's tango dancers will be considerable. I have not met Sophia Saborido but anyone who partners Pablo will be of a very high dance level. Here's a blurb about Pablo and Sophia from the workshops hosts: Frequently invited to some of the largest tango festivals in Europe and North America, Pablo has been teaching and performing around the world since 1999. An excellent teacher with a great capacity for analysis and an innate sense of musicality, Pablo's classes are popular amongst dancers of all levels. Sofia Saborido is a delicate and intense dancer, a jewel of the new tango generation. Rich in musicality and quality of movement her dancing is based on a refined and sensitive connection. Very appreciated for her pedagogical method, she has taught in Europe since 2006 giving workshops, seminars and festivals." Here's the most recent video of Pablo and Sophia performing: |
