About the Instructors
|
MIKE & ALISA BOHAN
Mike & Alisa met performing together in a dance company the mid 1980s. After sampling other couples' dances they fell in love with Argentine Tango and began their journey of study and dance with many of the world's greatest tango masters. A short list of their influences include Carlos Gavito, Carlos & Maria Rivarola, Gustavo Naveira & Giselle Anne, Orlando Paiva, Graciela Gonzales, Fabian Salas, Fernanda Ghi & Guillermo Merlo, and Nora Olivera. Their longtime teachers and legendary tangueros Nito & Elba Garcia call Mike & Alisa their "tango children." Although they are first and foremost social dancers, Mike & Alisa have performed as featured dancers in numerous tango productions and benefits. As co-founders of Sacramento Tango, Mike & Alisa were among the very first to bring authentic Argentine Tango dance to the Sacramento area. (They also host the Wednesday evening Práctica at Step One, 1920 T Street, 9 - 11 pm, only $3 for the Práctica.) |
