Born and brought up in Buenos Aires Tomas brings and shares his 12 years of teaching and performing experience in Argentina, North America and Europe. Through his understanding and dedication Tomas creates a bridge linking traditional tango with the newer tendencies.

Tomas dances and teaches authentic Argentine Tango. He had the privilege to study and assist some of the greatest teachers of all time: Pepe Avellaneda, Pupy Castello, Jose Brahemcha, Gustavo Naveira, Graciela Gonzalez.

His knowledge and pedagogy are unique and exceptional. Tomas believes in a natural, relaxed, comfortable, thoughtful and skillful tango; one that is unique for each person. Tomas is appreciated for his sharp eye, gentle humor, and accessibility.

The Regional weekend is a gathering of dancers from all around the SE region and beyond, including classes, evening social dances and our fabulous Sunday Brunch and practica ! The classes will range from all level classes ( good work for all level dancers), to more intermediate classes and this year- NEW- a special upper level class for advanced dancers on Sunday before the brunch. Reasonable rates on full event package with early registration.

More information as the plans for the event evolve. Mark your calendar and plan to come to the beautiful mountains of Asheville in the springtime!

"I have been working with Tomas for over 2 years now, when he is anywhere within reason for me to travel to. I have taken many group classes and also work privately with him. I feel he is an exquisite dancer, and exceptional teacher. I am so excited to have him here in Asheville and be able to work with him even more closely. The Regional Weekend has always been a lot of fun, but this coming year's event is sure to be even more wonderful with Tomas!"

- I hope you can join us!!
