Durante ese periodo sufrio un accidente de trafico muy grave que la obligo a permanecer una larga temporada hospitalizada e inmovilizada durante seis meses. Anos despues de finalizar su formacion artistica, empezo a aprender tango y fue un encuentro irresistible. Desde entonces ha dedicado su vida professional al arte y al baile. En 2001 empieza a pasar largas temporadas en Buenos Aires, mejorando su estilo no solo con grandes maestros( Gavito, Sebastian y Mariana, Dana y Pablo Frigoli, Chico Frumboli..) sino tambien compartiendo abrazos y bailes con varios milongueros. </i></div><div><i>Desde hace cinco anos reside en Barcelona. Viaja mucho por su profesion, dando clases y exhibiciones en Europa y otros lugares como la India, donde dio clases y organizo milongas en Goa los ultimos tres anos durante el invierno. </i></div><div><i>(Ve a los postings TanGoa en este blog)</i></div><div><i>Define el tango como ‘el regalo mas grande de su vida’, porque representa la profunda gratitud que siente por haber recibido esta segunda oportunidad de la vida.</i></div></div></div><div><br /></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5532527146016501735.post-10449508837431571692011-11-27T05:18:00.000-08:002011-11-27T13:03:11.548-08:00Tango performance/Exhibicion in Casa Valencia<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVZaSOM4wrY_MCZj2FSVjPNqHojJ-5HsLm4GrLaEA6K8TI37-l6HChdJSVDVoM5-ZIrnInQB9O6YovpTGQHR_WTQ86IiAuirAi6tBkcy7mLbRGk_DXSXGfUvE1lVBzCWn_f2k2mbj2nUc/s1600/pic+1+jens.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 180px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVZaSOM4wrY_MCZj2FSVjPNqHojJ-5HsLm4GrLaEA6K8TI37-l6HChdJSVDVoM5-ZIrnInQB9O6YovpTGQHR_WTQ86IiAuirAi6tBkcy7mLbRGk_DXSXGfUvE1lVBzCWn_f2k2mbj2nUc/s320/pic+1+jens.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5679684861644823138" /></a><br /><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#cc0000;"><b>Performance Alexandra Kallos and Jens-Ingo Brodesser</b></span></div><div><br /></div>It's with great pleasure that i can announce the tango performance on thursday <b>1 st of Dec</b>. in the milonga <b>Casa Valencia, Barcelona.</b><div><div>After doing many workshops and exhibitions abroad, </div><div>its very exciting to be dancing in my hometown with </div><div>a new partner Jens-Ingo Brodesser!</div><div><div>He is a greek-german tangodancer living in Brussels.</div><div>We both share many years of professional dancing and studying in Buenos Aires with various maestros like Gavito, Gustavo Naveiro, Sebastian y Mariana, Chicho Frumboli, Dana y Pablo Frigoli to name but a few.</div><div>We hope to welcome you all and share this special performance with us!</div><div><br /></div><div>Milonga 22.30 - 01.30 hs</div><div>Performance around 23.30 hs</div><div>Entrada 6 euro</div><div><b>Milonga Casa Valencia, Corcega 335, pral, </b></div><div><b>Barcelona </b>( M.

Besides the chilled out beach life and famous rave parties, there are a lot of other things happening during the winter months in Goa.</div><div>All along the northern beaches: Anjuna, Vagator, Morjim, Ashwem etc. there are lots of high level yoga classes-and retreats on offer.

If you travel inland from the beaches, Goa has beautiful wildlife and a rich, Portuguese and Hindu cultural heritage.</div><div><br /></div><div>Tango is fairly new to India, but in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore thriving Tango communities are becoming part of the ever expanding global Tango family.

Un lugar para practicar lo que has aprendido con el profesor quien está a tu disposición para responder a cualquier pregunta. Los viernes por la noche habrá <b>milonga</b> (un salón para baile social) donde todos los amantes de Tango serán bienvenidos para juntarse y disfrutar bailando.<br />Durante estos tres meses yo misma seré vuestro host/profesora. Otros profesores de Tango así como parejas profesionales serán invitados a venir y ofrecer talleres. Esta es una invitación a todo aquel que quiere aprender Tango y nunca lo hizo y para todos aquellos que ya forman parte de la comunidad de Tango de todo el mundo, para hacer un viaje a la bella Goa y disfrutar de <b>una vacaciones tropicales llenas de Tango</b>!<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;"><b>Goa</b></span> está en el suroeste de la India. Es el estado más pequeño del país y su capital es Panjim. Es una larga franja de palmeral junto a la costa, con preciosas playas de arena blanca y fina, bañadas por las cálidas aguas del Mar Arábico. Puede además presumir también de tener maravillosos bosques tropicales, amables habitantes y muchísimas excitantes delicias tropicales.<br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;"><b>TanGoa</b></span> está situado en una de las playas del norte más conocidas, Anjuna. Para los occidentales, Goa es famosa por sus preciosas playas y por un estilo de vida liberal que evolucionó desde que Anjuna fuera descubierta por los Beatles en los años sesenta. Además de la vida relajada en las playas y las famosas fiestas rave, hay muchas otras cosas para hacer durante el invierno en Goa. En todas las playas del norte (Anjuna, Vagator, Morjim, Ashwem, etc) se hacen clases de yoga de alto nivel y se ofrecen espacios para el retiro. Desde Ashtanga a Vinyasa yoga, todos los tipos de yoga son enseñados por profesores occidentales (comprueba el retiro Brahmani Yoga y Purple Valley). Y, por supuesto, también hay cursos de meditación y masaje Ayurvédico para la relajación total.<br /><br />Para los más aventureros también hay kitesurfing y paragliding. Si viajas al interior, Goa tiene una preciosa fauna y flora, herencia cultural de Portugal e India.<br /><br />Tango es todavía algo bastante nuevo en India, pero en Delhi, Bombay y Bangalore las comunidades de Tango están formando parte ya de la familia global de Tango. Si estás en India o vas a estar allí entre diciembre de 2009 y enero 2010, ven y disfruta del Tango en Goa! No olvides traer tus zapatos de baile ;-)<br /><br />Enviaré más detalles sobre el lugar exacto de las clases y las milongas más adelante en este blog <b>www.gotatangocom-alexkallos.blogspot.com</b> y en <b><a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=193204557418&ref=search&sid=516287818.4101212268..1">TanGoa</a></b> y <b><a href="http://www.tangoindia.in/">Tango in India</a></b> en <b><a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=193204557418&ref=search&sid=516287818.4101212268..1">Facebook</a>. </b><br />Si estás interesado en <b>TanGoa</b> o tienes alguna pregunta sobre la estancia, los vuelos, los precios, yoga, etc, porfavor envíame un email a <span style="font-weight:bold;">kallos.alex@gmail.com</span> y estaré más que contenta de ayudarte!<br /><br />Espero verte pronto disfrutando de una milonga en una maravillosa puesta de sol en Goa!<br /><br />Hasta entonces,<br />Feliz <i>milonqueando!</i><br /><b>Alexandra Kallos</b>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5532527146016501735.post-88855341157462349422009-11-04T09:08:00.000-08:002009-11-24T15:07:54.287-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdpsl6gvBmt5UPEiR2lL1C1hEtEi9LGASeSaQ0gd5U5_UUVQfCMNTZeVe9nAkUOKMOzYIuWnlYrYxjast-yICvUd3Gt_OLz_ZzLlo7AdvWsJWW5f26eh5X1aZSrT74xGxWb0E9qTO-Ccw/s1600-h/tangoa_flyer_small.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdpsl6gvBmt5UPEiR2lL1C1hEtEi9LGASeSaQ0gd5U5_UUVQfCMNTZeVe9nAkUOKMOzYIuWnlYrYxjast-yICvUd3Gt_OLz_ZzLlo7AdvWsJWW5f26eh5X1aZSrT74xGxWb0E9qTO-Ccw/s320/tangoa_flyer_small.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400311644087555890" /></a><br /><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC0000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:x-large;">TanGoa :</span></span></b><div><br /></div><div><b>Argentine Tango in Goa, India.</b></div><div>From <b>10 dec</b> 2009 till <b>4</b><b> march</b> </div><div> classes in Argentine Tango twice a week. </div><div><b>Levels</b> : beginners and intermediate.</div><div> After the classes there will be a '<i>practica', </i> that means continued dancing in the same space as the classes but without further instruction.

The incessant drizzle making the portugese capital look like the perfect image dreamed up in a typical, somewhat depressive Fernando Pessoa poem.</div><div>With summerhigh temperatures the HEAT was on in the milonga. Resulting in unusual sticky sweating around the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">pista, </span>for the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">Voz de Operario</span>, the name of the quaint, old building housing the tango venue, is not fitted with modern airconditioning.</div><div>And maybe the temperatures were the only high this year.</div><div>In my own modest opinion, the festival this year fell a bit short on its reputation.</div><div>Maybe it was the orchestra, '<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">El Silencio'</span> originating from Berlin, that failed to inspire.</div><div>I can't put my finger on it but somehow me and most dancers choose to sit out the tangos played <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">live </span>by the musicians rather then being drawn <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">in</span> to create some sensuous moves on the dancefloor while defying the heat.</div><div>Or maybe it was the lack of participants. There was definately a drop in visitor numbers, creating visible gaps in the milonga. Now <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">gaps </span>on the dancefloor are not necessarily a bad thing!</div><div>But it can have a downside in relation to atmosphere. Im sad to say there just wasn't a very animated ambiance.</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">Una milonga no bien animada</span>- now that brings me to something close to my heart. </div><div> Something that i always try to convey: that a milonga is a <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">living</span></span> thing. </div><div>That its not only about the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">size </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="">or</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"> the look </span>of a milonga, or the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">amount </span>of people participating.</div><div> Its all about the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">energy </span>that we SHARE. A milonga <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">as such <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal; ">merely provides the space, the dancefloor, music etc. Now, a good dj can surely inspire. When he- or she- is in a good mood, in the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">right</span> mood better said, and really <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">feels</span> the energy in the milonga , their music can really inspire, set the place 'on fire'. But thats when the dj really <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">connects</span> with the milonga. Thats an interesting point, because that implies that the dj is <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">co</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">nscious</span></span> of the energy in the place. The energy grows in intensity when people in the milonga are truly <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">present.</span> Theres <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">consciousness</span> again! So for a milonga to be truly dynamic and inspirational, to become this <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">living thing</span></span> i think its more a situation of 'give and take'. In an ideal situation, WE, the participants should get conscious upon entering a milonga and connect with our own, individual energies and decide what mood or vibe we wish to bring to the milonga. So by not expecting or <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">assuming</span> the music and surroundings of the space to simply deliver <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">us</span> a perfect dance event (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">taking</span>), but by being <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">aware</span> of our own individual energies thus <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">contributing </span>something positive to something <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">bigger</span> then ourselves (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">giving</span>), we are consciously taking the first steps towards manifesting a living, breathing milonga<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">. </span></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Connection</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">energy,</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">consciousness and sharing</span> are the key words here!</div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">Ademas,</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""> if we extend that awareness to our -own- dancepartners, aswell as the other dancers on the floor and move around the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">pista</span> with respect for each other, letting the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">tandas</span> guiding us into inspired, new tango territory, we're getting ever closer to honoring a so called <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">milonga etiquette.</span></span></div><div>In my opinion by incorporating all of the above, we are laying down the groundrules, creating a <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">cosmic</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">blueprint </span>if you will, for a milonga thats far more than the sum of its parts. </div><div>If <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">that</span> level of consciousness is the starting point, we stand a good chance of creating a truly inspirational, supercharged milonga ! </div><div>Thus becoming an active part of a 'total' experience, an amalgamation of great tango-dance vibes, people vibes and Zen vibes.... something that truly lifts us all onto HIGHER ground. </div><div>Amen.
