Oscar Casas grew up in Buenos Aires, breathing tango. His father was a milonguero who organizedmilongas in Parque Patricios, a tango barrio in Buenos Aires. Oscar is a well-known figure in the milongas of Buenos Aires, and his distinctive style is greatly admired by other milongueros.
Ana Miguel grew up inthe Almagro barrio of Buenos Aires in a family of well-known bandoneon players so tango music is in her blood. She studied and taught dance in Buenos Aires and has danced in some of the most famous tango shows in town. Her current position is teaching tango with Oscar Casas.
Oscar’s and Ana’s improvisational dance reflects some current techniques of different styles of tango but never loses the spirit of the Old Guard. They agree that tango is “a feeling that is danced”. For them, tango is endlessly fresh and fun.
