Eva Carrozza began dancing tango after seeing street performers improvising in the Ramblas of Barcelona in '92 (when the city was preparing for the Olympic games and street performances abounded!) Fascinated by the connection evident in this dance -- she took her first classes with Danel & Maria Bastone, pioneers of social tango in New York City. Since then, she has studied with Guillermina Quiroga, Facundo Posadas, Julio Balmaceda & Corina de la Rosa, Graciela Gonzalez, Pablo Veron, and many other great teachers during travels to Buenos Aires and tango congresses around the United States. A brief, but illuminating partnership with dancer and author Ramiro Gigliotti (El Veneno de Tango, 2009) from 2002-2004 brought the influence of Villa Urquiza style of dancing tango to Eva's dancing. Over the years she has performed with Ney Melo, Murat Erdemsel, Eduardo Goytia, and Ramiro Gigliotti. Teaching, she emphasizes refining the connection through improving posture, flexibility and security in the embrace, and going deeper into the music to bring the partnership to a richer experience of tango. There are no short cuts! View an improvisation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pziTBYGWHlo
Eva Carrozza began her dance career as a modern dancer. Eva's immersion into social dancing began in 1993. She loves teaching and performing. She is a senior teaching artist with the American Ballroom Theater's Dancing Classrooms. A program founded by Pierre Dulaine & Yvonne Marceau. This program was featured in the documentary Mad Hot Ballroom and the film, Take the Lead.
In recent years, she has toured with the big band revue: Forever Swing. She performed tango with the New York City Ballet program Ballet for Young People at New York State Theatre and appeared in the Wendy Taucher production Carly Simon Dances with original and previously recorded compositions by Carly Simon. If you watch channel 13 in NYC, you will probably see Eva dancing tango on the station identifications.
