DANIEL MĂNDIȚĂ
Invited teachers
Amalia and Daniel have been teaching tango for nearly twelve years and have guided countless dancers in Romania and abroad. Some of their students teach and perform in most of the major cities in Romania and several European countries.
Amalia and Daniel have performed on national and international stages for more than 10 years and in over 150 tango shows. Their tango education started with traditional Argentinian milongueros and then continued on to some of the greatest masters of tango today such as Gustavo Naveira and Pablo Veron.
Their style of teaching is focused on clear explanations and preliminary exercises that can be practised individually and can also be incorporated into the dance. Amalia and Daniel believe strongly that tango should be danced, enjoyed, studied and explored and that tango can become a means of enriching one’s life.
