Teachers at Tango Camp 2009
Özhan Araz and Serkan Gokcesu (Turkey)
The latest addition to the European Tango scene. “Latest”, with the emphasis on something completely new and appetizingly fresh. Ozhan Araz and Serkan Gokcesu represent a unique mixture of traditional Argentine Tango meeting the modern urban environment with all its different faces. Their style of dance reaches from the fundamental basics as they are taught in their lessons, to the spectacular figures performed at their shows – figures that result from the strong combination of a man dancing with another man!

Slava Ivanov and Olga Leonova (Moscow, Russia)
One of the most beautiful couples of Moscow, they are remarkable for their non-standard dancing manner at Moscow milongas, their own elegant style and great mix of tango-salon and tango-fantasia. The most important in their dance is the contact and harmony inside of the couple and unity with the music.
Vyacheslav has been dancing since 2000 i.e. quite from the very beginning of tango life in Russia. He is the organiser and moderator of the most visited tango forum in Russia as well. He studied in Amsterdam, Paris, Bologna, Barselona, Istanbul, Buenos-Aires. Olga & Vyacheslav have got great experience in conducting workshops in Russia and Ukraine: Kyiv, Samara, Chelyabinsk, St.-Petersbourg, Saratov and Rostov. Their energetic and creative style of teaching are marked by considered structure of lessons as well as comprehensive interpretation of a workshop subject.
