Tango del Alma
We are Craig and Regine and we are passionate tango dancers and teachers, and have run a free Thursday weekly milonga in Wellington for many years.
We especially love the traditional style of tango, danced in the local milongas of Buenos Aires, where the floors are very crowded and space is limited.
This style is very grounded in the traditions, etiquette, and the music of the 30’s, 40’s and 50’sTango del Alma will be teaching the beginner class at 10.30am on Saturday morning.
Viva Latina Dance
Introducing Viva Latina Dance: Embrace Argentine Tango and Latin Dance since 1997, brought to you by the renowned Alex White, one of the pioneering forces behind Argentine Tango in New Zealand.
At Viva Latina Dance, we believe in providing a transformative dance experience that goes beyond mere steps. Under Alex's expert guidance, our teaching approach strikes the perfect balance between technique and expressive movement, ensuring that our students not only learn the intricacies of Tango but also immerse themselves in the joyous journey it offers.
Since its establishment in 1997 after Alex returned from Argentina at the age of 18, Viva Latina Dance has spearheaded the promotion of Argentine Tango and Latin Dance throughout New Zealand. Alex has shared his passion for dance by teaching in various cities across the country and exotic destinations where he has continued to inspire and educate dancers worldwide.
Through Alex’s tango journey, he has trained with and learned from dozens of well-known and accomplished teachers such as Osvaldo Zotto, Gustavo Naveira, Fabian Salas & Pablo Veron (stars of "The Tango Lesson”). Fuelled by an unwavering commitment to personal growth, he frequently returns to Argentina for intensive training, further solidifying his position as a distinguished figure in the Tango community. Alex has left an indelible mark on the world of dance, making notable appearances in numerous short films, festivals, and competition shows. Among his impressive highlights are the sold-out fringe festival show "Penas del bandoneon," captivating performances on national TV in both New Zealand and Argentina, mesmerizing tango theater shows, and even sharing the stage with the esteemed New Zealand Symphony Orchestra (NZSO).
Joining Alex is his exceptional dance partner, Denise, who embarked on her Argentine Tango journey in 2019 after experiencing the magic of a free class at Alex White's school. Entranced by the profound emotional connection that Tango offers, Denise has dedicated herself to regular training with Alex and renowned maestras such as Vanesa Villalba, Laila Rezk, and Gisela Natoli.
For the past four years, Alex and Denise have formed an extraordinary partnership, creating an atmosphere of pure enjoyment and camaraderie for their students. Together, they provide a platform for learning, dancing, and showcasing the beauty of Tango. Driven by their shared commitment to continuous improvement, they actively train with the best in the industry, including the honor of hosting the esteemed World Tango Champs in Wellington and participating in exclusive online private training sessions with revered instructors.
