One of our hosts Martin Braase and Unni Hermansen after our tango course in Nyksund, November 2006

Unni Hermansen,
main organizor:I have a background from theater, ashtanga yoga, modern dance, gymnastics and ballet. I have danced tango since 1997. My motivation to teach is based on the opportunities argentine tango offers to express creativity, playfulness and presens through movement. My partner and I wish to share what we know about mastering the conditions for enjoying dancing together.To be able to find moments of presens and flow by the language of tango.
I have been organizing 11 festivals in Oslo and have been teaching in Norway, Switzerland and Italy.

In his own words:
Tango found me some years ago.
The passion for it grows inside of me, slowly but continuously... While studying in Argentina and Europe I pick up different points of views and I keep developing my own dance style.
I consider Tango a »creative passion«, and an extraordinary way to listen to myself and my partner. A pleasant instrument to set free the most internal true energies, without judgments or pre-judices.
My idea of a perfect tango? As in life, being myself in front of one or one thousand people, always searching for an intimate feeling with the music and my partner

Giancarlo Feggi, Italy

Is a wonderful dancer! Few people I know has such a flow and ability to lead comfortably. He is full of ethusiasm and joy. With his genuine willingness to explain how to make your movements work, it is a pleasure to learn from him. At this time he is in Buenos Aires to study with the maestros.
