Tango with Misse & Centurion

 

 

 

"If I could see this couple dance every day of my life, I would die happy."

                     Alastair Macaulay, The New York Times, August 6, 2012

 

"At one point...one of Ms. Centurion's feet slid very high up one of Mr. Misse's thighs.  Tango dancers often try hard to be sexy.  Mr. Misse and Ms. Centurion don't need to try."

                           Brian Seibert, The New York Times, October 18, 2012

GABRIEL MISSE, admired for his classical "tanguero" style, is one of the great "milongueros" of this generation.   A native of Buenos Aires, Gabriel began studying dance at the age of eight with the great masters Antonio Todaro and Pepito Avellanda.  For many years, he toured Europe, Asia, and North America as a member of the companies "Tango x 2," "Forever Tango," and "Una Noche de Tango," among others.   Misse is also the choreographer of several Argentine Tango shows.

 

ANALIA CENTURION, a native of Buenos Aires, began studies in ballet, modern dance, and piano at the age of six.   From 2002-06 she was director of the "Fusion Tango," and has danced with numerous tango theater and dinner shows,  including "Juan Carlos Copes and Company," "La Ventana," and Piazzolla Tango."  

 

The DARDO GALLETTO STUDIOS, located at 151 West 46th Street, 11th floor, opened only three years ago, has quickly established itself as one of the city's major tango centers for classes, milongas, and performances.   Directors are Argentinian husband and wife Dardo Galletto and Karina Romero.
