The new, long-awaited instructional DVD for tango beginners has finally come out! This DVD offers a carefully, systematically arranged and instructive introduction to the world of tango. Modern computer/DVD technology has allowed them to offer dancers a number of innovative resources in this medium. Another bonus: 8 languages are available: Español, Deutsch, Italiano, Türkçe, English, Français, Portugues, Polski. The DVD is in PAL format. A more exact description of the DVD's contents can be found in German here:

I would like to take the opportunity to introduce our new colleague, Danel Cove. He has already started to actively support our Danza y Movimiento Team and will be substituting for me when I go on maternity leave in January 2010. We're delighted that Danel has jumped aboard and we're looking forward to the teamwork.
Tanja Darwisch Monday, November 9. 2009Fernando Santullo y Bajofondo
Back again! Bajofondo
Fernando Santullo is the composer of -among other things- "Ya no duele el corazón" and "El mareo", titles which appear on the CD "Mar Dulce" by Bajofondo and which already enjoy great popularity in the tango scene. This is a solo album of the Barcelona-based Uruguayan. Dynamically supported by Bajofondo, his CD "Santullo" is less tango-dominated than Bajofondo's. It still, however, has the same hypnotic power and gets better with every listening. Definitely worth checking out!: Fernando Santullo y Bajofondo Monday, November 9. 2009Legends of Folklore Argentino, Flamenco & Música do Brasil
The DVD-series "Legends of..." remembers the Lippmann + Rau festivals between1965 and 1969. The festival casts include names of artists with the highest esteem in their countries and internationally. The recordings made by the German broadcasting companies SWF and WDR in those years during the festivals (camera for Michael Ballhaus) are of extreme cultural value. They often contain the only pictures available of the musicians at that time, documents which cannot be found even in their countries of origin. The DVD-edition won the prize of the "Deutsche Schallplattenkritik" (3/2009) in the category DVD-video-production.
Legends of... (DVD) Tuesday, August 11. 2009Danza y Movimiento - the travel trend-setter
Since 1996, Danza y Movimiento has created a large programme for dance courses, Spanish classes, classes for musical instruments and theatre in various countries. In the beginning, the focus was on salsa and tango, but over the years, the range of dance offers has been enlarged to almost all areas of dance and movement. The programme contains modern dance or ballet in Havana; hip hop, Alexander technique or BioDanza in Buenos Aires; and also jazz dance, Lindy-Hop, Bollywood or flamenco in Madrid - and these are only some examples of a broad variety of offers, which are suitable for professionals, beginners, for spending your annual holidays in an active way, and which extend into the areas of dance therapy and choreography.
“Danza y Movimiento” is considered a trend-setter, and thus it isn't surprising that other travel organisers frequently visit our website. It became particularly obvious in the case of Cuba, because especially "salsa" became a lucrative term for big and small travel companies in the late 1990s. Since then, again and again, complete text passages from “Danza y Movimiento” appear in the catalogues of other travel agencies. This is what we call a lively interest... It is possible to copy the words but not the essence of our travel offers. Considering the - key contents of our cultural programme - format and goal of our journeys - personal support of our guests before and during the journey - possibility of an exchange of experiences after the journey we are not worried by many of the copies currently on the market. But it is easy to tell the copy from the original: Questioning the content of other agencies' offers, one can easily find out, if the answer is well-grounded or if it only consists in catch-phrases or compositions of text excerpts. If you are looking for the original and for professional structures, we will be happy to assist you with or advice for your journey to Cuba, Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia, Ecuador, Spain or Italy. Travel offers to Cuba, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador, Colombia, Spain or Italy Thursday, July 23. 2009International Tango Festival Hamburg

Thursday, July 23. 2009Arabic Tango with Soumaya Baalbaki
The CD "Arabtango" by the libanese singer Soumaya Baalbaki is a rare discovery which, again, demonstrates the worldwide fascination for tango. These are the audio samples:
Soumaya Baalbaki: Arabtango Unfortunately, there is no translation of the lyrics, but we would like to offer a (free) translation of the track titles, at least: I would give you my eyes They didn't release me Once, you came to my garden It wasn't me who cried I am in love with you I am dreaming with you I love you, and you think of me For you, oh moon Oh, you lover of the flowers Thursday, July 23. 2009Latin CD-News
