Robin Thomas
Robin Thomas’ [Class Schedule] [Event Calendar]
A well-known and respected dancer and DJ, Robin's enthusiasm for Argentine tango can be seen most clearly in his wholehearted dedication to teaching. He believes that it is very important for students to dance simply and musically from the very beginning. Building that strong base of connection and musicality early, Robin believes, will allow even very new beginners to feel comfortable and confident on a crowded dance floor and will also lead to a more comprehensive and fluid understanding of more complicated techniques later on. Robin's teaching style reflects this philosophy, and his students appreciate the humorous but still down-to-earth way he presents the material.
Robin's travel schedule is a busy one, reflecting his popularity as a teacher and tango DJ. Recently, he has taught in Portland, Denver, Ann Arbor, Washington DC, Seattle, Berlin, Edinburgh, San Diego, Providence, Pittsburgh and at the universities, Yale, Princeton, and Cornell.
Robin joins us as co-host and DJ, along with Rebecca Shulman, of the weekly Thursday night Tango practica, RACING CLUB, beginning in June 2013. He will also be offering weekly classes at Dance Manhattan on that same evening beginning in July.
