Mariana Dragone
As you watch Mariana Dragone dance a tango, you can't help but be captivated by her grace and beauty, the precision and power in her movement and her soft yet striking presence.  Starting at a young age, Mariana has now been dancing tango for over 13 years.  Her tango training began in the milongas of Buenos Aires, and throughout her career she has remained a true "milonguera," appreciating the intimacy and ritual of the social dance.  Over the past number of years, Mariana has devoted herself to working with the evolution of tango movement.  She is admired as an excellent teacher and impressive performer both in Buenos Aires and in her travels around the world.   Not only does Mariana's extensive knowledge and experience allow her to precisely address key problem spots with students, her enthusiasm to share her tango and her culture make her classes exciting and enriching for all!  

Mariana has appeared on stage with Carlos Gavito, Leòn Gieco, Mercedes Sosa and Víctor Heredia, amongst others. She has performed and/or taught worldwide, including Europe (France, Germany, Switzerland, Spain), Japan, China, Canada (Montreal), USA (NY, San Francisco, amongst other cities).  This year, Mariana's tango has taken her to workshop destinations with Jaimes Freidgen, important festivals with Chicho Frumboli, performances with Ezequiel Farfaro in Buenos Aires, and allowed her to develop even more innovative workshops on her own to share with tango aficionados!   She is known especially for her workshop topics revolving around the intimate tango embrace, musicality, women's adornos, volcadas.
