The 5th edition of the International Istanbul tango Festival will take place on 3-6 July 2008

Since 2006 TanguerIN Studio is the regional representative of the International Istanbul Tango Festival. and provides registration and payment services as well as travel advice from Bulgaria at no additional cost. There is a special 5% discount for those who register and pay any of the festival packs (except the pack that includes only the milongas) through TanguerIN Studio. The 2008 edition of the festival will take place between the 3rd and 6th July and will feature five of the world most famous dance couple, one orchestra and a line up of international DJs including Ivo from TanguerIN.

TanguerIN Studio changes its teaching staff and location

As of March 2008 Ivo and Nadia will stop teaching the regular weekly classes at TanguerIN Studio as they will be relocating to Switzerland. They will continue to oversee the activities of TanguerIN traveling between Bulgaria and Switzerland and focusing on administrative and organizational work. They will also teach occasional special workshops when they are in Sofia.

All regular classes and practicas of TanguerIN Studio, including the courses for absolute beginners, will be taught by Stoyan and Aneta, two of the most experienced TanguerIN students, who have been with TanguerIN Studio since its beginning in 2005 and have often assisted Ivo and Nadia in their teaching activities.

TanguerIN officially closes its Lozenets Studio on 51 Zlatovruh Street and transfers all of its classes, workshops and practicas to the Czech Club Ballroom on 15 Krakra St.

In addition to this, from 1st April 2008, TanguerIN Studio will replace its Tango Bar milonga that currently takes place on Wednesday at the Czech Club Ballroom with a weekly practica on the same day and at the same time as the milonga.

These changes will not affect in any way the quality of TanguerIN's activites - their sole purpose is to optimize their structure and to increase the efficiency of the work of the TanguerIN team much to the benefit of all those who attend the various classes and events.
