Daniel Ledesma

 I was lucky enough to be borned in the cradle of Tango , the culture of  " El Rio de la Plata ". My mother used to have many recordings and the ghost of Tango was in our slang , our jokes , our sayings , our tv programs,  even if i didn't notice that during that time. It was everywhere. I even played " La cumparsita " when i was 12 years old on my guitar exam . And as an adult , searching to live a life with passion i've tried to learn Tango . And it really was a surprise for me that in the milongas , many people were asking me to teach them but i was refusing to do that because honestly i wasn't thinking to become a teacher . But one of my teachers encouraged me to do it because as she said " You understand Tango". After ten years of teaching and organizing Argentine  Tango events , i still believe i have a long way to go in mastering this art form.   One thing takes you to another,  and now i'm enrolled in a 3 year Master program with a Couple of Masters from Buenos Aires , Alejandra Armenti and Daniel Juarez, (www.corporationtango.com) . And for the last two years , i'm part of a new dance company , Patagonia Dance Company , directed by Romina C. Rodriguez and Oscar Mansilla , and  which has given me the opportunity to share the stage with amazing dancers and teachers . And learning from them and their unique styles and understanding of Tango . So i invite you to join me in this journey that more than learning a dance form is a journey of self discovery.
