About Dominic Bridge:
Over the past four years, Dominic Bridge has taught and performed up and down the west and east coasts of the United States, Chicago Tango Week '09, Italy, and Buenos Aires, where he has spent months engaged in extensive dance training. Dominic spent last year building a tango school and teaching full time in Florence, Italy, at l'Associazione Pablo Scuola di Tango Argentino. He also performed in Danza In Fiera 2009, Italy's multi-dance festival. When his weekends were free, he took trips around Europe, spending a significant amount of time dancing in Paris, Rennes, Berlin, Bäsel, Siracusa, and Catania. Dominic views tango in the same way he views any language: there are clear rules of structure, grammar, all of which can be broken when understood. These elements form a foundation necessary in communicating in one's own way. His effectiveness as a teacher grows from his deep understanding of movement and his ability to clearly communicate.
About Jenna Rohrbacher:
To Jenna, dancing tango is an ongoing search for the complete. Balanced by complexity in movement and purity of sensation, her elegant dance embodies the traditional roles of Argentine tango and beyond. Whether leading or following, Jenna maintains musical conversations that linger in the memory of her partner's skin. Jenna's teaching philosophy and practice reflect the attention she gives to the idiosyncrasies of all dancers, helping to attune themselves individually to the music and their partners. In the last three years, Jenna has taught and performed around the U.S. with Joe Leonardo, Alex Krebs, Felipe Martinez, Robin Thomas, and Dominic Bridge (in Florence, Italy). She teaches in Portland, Oregon, and is currently producing a tango show,Tango Éxtasis, with the Miracle Theatre Group for September 2010.
