Ladies Tango & Yoga Retreat
Roxana Suarez
Petra Demey
June 13-16, 2024
Roxana Suarez started listening to tango music when she was still in her mother's womb. Her mother always went to the milonga that her grandmother Martita organized in the Congreso district. Growing up, she was surrounded by tango. She watched the best dancers of the time, practiced from an early age in the milongas of Buenos Aires and learned from the best teachers. Roxana Suarez and Sebastian Achaval started their collaboration in February 2007. They gave group and private lessons together in well-known halls and milongas in Buenos Aires and performed in the city's most famous dance halls. Their lessons have taken them all over the world to teach at the most important festivals in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Oceania. Roxana and Sebastian ended their collaboration in 2023. Petra Demey is a professional yoga teacher and has completed training in hatha yoga, yin yoga and restorative yoga. She also gives relaxing oil massage and Thai yoga massage. As a yoga teacher with 10 years of experience as a tango dancer, she knows what yoga can do for tango dancers and which exercises are useful to take your tango to the next level.
