ABOUT OUR TEACHING
Eventhough the strongest interest of Timo & Marjo is to use Argentine tango as a cornerstone for their performances, they highly appreciate the tradition of tango as a social dance. In their teaching Timo & Marjo rely on natural posture, musicality, sensitive interaction, and understanding the structure of tango. Further, they are constantly looking for ways to encourage their students (and themselves) to trust their intention and body intelligence instead of mind-blocking analysement sometimes present in western, organized cultures. Timo & Marjo's classes have been said to be well planned with good rhythm and also fun. Timo & Marjo are also founders of two monthly milongas: Milonga del Engel in Helsinki and Mallasmilonga in Oulu.
