About This Site

This site is dedicated to the study of Argentine Tango. We consider Tango to be an evolving art form which includes social dance, performance dance, music and poetry. This site will primarily deal with the social form of Tango dance and music.

On this site you should find the following sections:

 

Clint Rauscher has been dancing Argentine Tango since 2003. He is a founding member of Tango Evolution and loves sharing his knowledge of Argentine tango dance and music.

He teaches simple, elegant, musical and playful ideas to be used on the social dance floor from Atlanta to Buenos Aires.

He has studied with master teachers both in the US and Buenos Aires including Sebastian Arce y Mariana Montes, Gustavo Naveira y Giselle Anne, Mariano “Chicho” Frumboli y Juana Sepulveda, Alejandra Mantiñan y Aoniken Quiroga, Norberto “El Pulpo” Esbrez, Facundo Posadas, Oscar Casas y Ana Miguel, Osvaldo Zotto y Lorena Ermocida, Osvaldo y Coca Cartery, Cristina Cortes and Gabriel Glagovsky.

 

Shelley Brooks has been dancing Tango since late 2004, and enjoys all styles of the embrace. She  is a strong supporter of the Argentine Tango community in Atlanta, GA. She brings with her years of classical ballet training, as well as jazz, modern,tap, African, hip-hop, and Salsa, and studies in choreography, kinesiology, music, dance history, and has taught various dance/exercise programs over the years. With the understanding that technique and body mechanics are of utmost importance, you must never forget the dance, the energy, and how you move through space to the music.

Shelley has studied with masters from the States and Buenos Aires, most notably: Guillermina Quiroga, Gustavo Naveira and Giselle Anne, Fabian Salas and Carolina del Rivero, Miguel Zotto , Osvaldo Zotto and Lorena Ermocida, Nancy Louzan and Damian Essel, Fernanda Ghi and Guillermo Merlo, Silvina Valz and Oliver Kolker, Adrian and Amanda Costa, and Roberto Reyes. It has been a privilege to be around, and a joy to share.
