One has to discover his own truth through his art. Biggest discovery that happened to us during our tango lives, was that the demanding process of skill –undeniable necessity for achieving artistry freedom- it leads to behavior.
Without further input, technique cultivates the way of doing things. The more we study, the more we dig in, the mere technique bring us to the essence of tango which is respect for the other.
To be effective or careful requires technique. That was not new.
But all this ,eventually will push you forward to be gallant and polite. Not only in a social accepted way, but in a deeper sense of respect.
We believe in improvisation.
We believe to the “ If it works, it works” mechanics
We choose these principals even for our “formal” performances.
Our efforts to transmit this principals as teachers, is a constant adventure, and we are grateful to our students for giving us these experiences. However we always stand behind this quote:
“Teacher is only pointing out the road for you. Not escorting you”
With that careful disclaimer we believe that our CV is complete. However in our website www.frinidimitris.com there is a list of information, events , and endorsements that you might find useful
See you in the pista
