On a Sunday afternoon, a widow waits for her two daughters and younger brother to join her for a family dinner. Under the quiet surface there are tensions and conflicts between the family members but everyone is used to the predictable situations they have to face each day. An unexpected guest drops in and the revelry that she brings with her throws the family off balance. What does the visit of this stranger mean to the family and herself?

In 1995, I was introduced to the MAGIC of ARGENTINE TANGO. This love affair is still going strong. The tango reawakened my passion for life, and it is with great joy that I share it with others. I am known for my leading skills and love of the social dance.
Some of my favorite teachers include: Alicia Cruzado, Laura Grinbank, Omar Vega, Pupy Castello, Diego y Negracha, Graciela Gonzalez "la Negra", Viviana Parra, Jorge Torres, Mariela Franganillo, Carina Moeller, Brigitta Winkler, Tete y Sylvia, Horacio Brito "El Pipe Avellaneda", Olga Besio, Maestro Carlos Gavito, "El Flaco" Dani, Susana Miller, Nito y Elba, Facundo y Kely Posadas, El Indio y Cacho Dante.
Before discovering tango I studied ballet, jaz, tap, flamenco, swing, and country western dancing, and although they are lovely dances, none of them embraced me like the tango! I taught Argentine tango and milonga at DanceSport in NYC (2002-2004) and continue to teach privately. Performance exhibitions in NYC include: Stepping Out, Chelsea Piers, P.S. 122, la Mama, Wow Cafe, and Theatre for the New City. In July 2007, my dance partner Kumi Ueki and I placed 3rd in the U.S. Tango Salon Championship. We also made history being the first same sex dance couple to be officially invited to dance in the Mundial in Bs. As. Follow this link for the video.
