WEEK OF WORKSHOPS with ERIC JEURISSEN
The exciting news is the forthcoming Week of Workshops with Eric
Jeurissen from 15th to 18th February. Ines Moussavi from Berlin will be

Cape Town, and South Africa, celebrating connection, musicality, grace
and flow in the dances that make up the Tango family.
He was taught by Pepito Avellenada in Nijmegen at his studio, El Corte,
