Juan Cantone:
Since 1992 Juan Cantone began his development in traditional tango with renowned teachers such as Gloria and Eduardo Arquimbaund, Facundo and Kelly Posadas, Migo and Esther Pugliese, and Cacho Dante and Susana Miller, to later be introduced to the new generation of tango with instructors such as Gustavo Naveira and Giselle Anne, Gabriel Angio and Natalia Games, Eduardo Moyano, Graciela Gonzales, Chicho Frumboli, and Pablo Villarraza and Dana Frigoli, Julio Balmaceda and Corina de la Rosa. From 2000-2003 he was part of Tangueros Unidos, where he carried out together with Rodolfo Aguerrodi and Miho Omaki the investigation and development of an integrative teaching method of conceptualized movement in relation to tango dance. Other related disciplines which enriched his dancing were: contact improvisation in the Rojas Cultural Center; pilates, partenaire techniques, flamenco, theatrical dance, and yoga (Ashtanga and Iyengar techniques) with teachers Finn and Andrea Martinez, continuing his training with Popy Villanueva; and classical dance in the hands of Elena Doria Medina and with Luis Baldasarre.
In March of 2001, Juan Cantone and Sol Orozco, partner at time, under the auspices of Banco de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, created and developed the El Esquinazo Cultural Center. As Artisitic Director, and since its creation, Juan Cantone determines the general direction of the Cultural Center’s progress, offering the community a space for development and recreation through the different disciplines taught there. Due to his renown and artistic trajectory, he was selected to represent Buenos Aires as choreographer of the house dance corps for Worldwide Scout Jamboree X, Chile 2000. Also,For Pan-American Jamboree XII, he was invited once again to choreograph the dance corps, this time also in charge of coordinating the dance workshops for youths and adults. The event closed with a performance by Juan Cantone and at the time partner to an audience of 5000 in the city of San Rafael- Mendoza. Since 2006 up the date, he has toured Europe and North America, teaching workshops and seminars and performing in different venues, including International Tango Festivals in more than twenty cities around the world.

Thank you to all the enthusiastic fellow dancers who participated in my recent Argentine Tango Workshop in Washington, D.C.. I’ll be returning on the 25th of April. Hope you’re able to join me again and continue to work on the foundations of Tango!
Dance etiquette, floor craft, posture, core connection to yourself and your partner, musicality and understanding different orchestras, change of directions, caminando, cruzada, ocho to left and right, giro y vuelta, ocho cortado, ocho adelante, mordida. All techniques are altered to complement the style that is danced in the tradition of milongueros from Buenos Aires, the original dancers of tango since the 1920’s.
