Teaching Philosophy:
Caroline Peattie and Christopher Nassopoulos are social tango dancers and instructors who have been teaching since 1999 and 1994 respectively. They have forged a bond with each other and with thousands of dancers in North and South America over the years, through their open, understanding, and relaxed approach to teaching Argentine tango. They have taught at festivals and workshops too numerous to count and are gifted instructors with uncanny skill and wisdom to help dancers identify their natural, graceful, and authentic patterns of movement. They dance with freedom and relaxation and teach from that foundation, independent of a student's style of dance or mode of embrace. They have made it their mission to send students from the workshop setting to the dance floor, with new, fresh skills and grounded walking that are immediately useful and appreciated by their dance partners. Many of Caroline and Christopher's students, both leaders and followers, have gone on to become some of the most sought-after social dancers in the U.S., and all are better prepared for dancing in both crowded festivals and in Buenos Aires, where navigation, understanding of the codes, and true lead and follow are prized above all else.
