Friday night - Jan. 28 - 2011 - Argentine Tango Heats up - a Winter night in Pittsburgh!!!

     All the lovers of Argentine Tango - take notice immediately:  A multi-talented, energetic and good looking dancer, musician, Argentine Tango Teacher - named Koichiro Suzuki or Chewy - to his numerous students and friends - in addition to teaching a lot of good Argentine Tango classes - also leads a super fun, fun, fun Argentine Tango band called Cuidado.
     On Fri. January 29-2011 - at the very heart of Pittsburgh's downtown Cultural District - Chewy and his equally talented dance partner - Julia - demonstrated a lot of polished and intriguing Argentine Tango moves while the Cuidado band performed tons of awesome Tango classics like "La Cumparsita" as well as some Astor Piazzolla Tango masterpieces like "Onda Nueva".
    The event happened on the fourth floor of a new loft structure - downtown Pittsburgh, Pa. and each floor presented a different cultural event.  During the same evening the second floor had a rap performance with a demonstration of some sort - so several youthful rap afficionados came upstairs to try their hands or feet at Argentine Tango which they preferred for that evening.
    Some people who accidentally walked in - to examine the art pieces on the fourth floor of that loft - immediatley got drown into the Argentine Tango sounds and couldn't take their eyes off the star dancers/teachers - Chewy and Julia.
    Long story short - the band sounded good, Chewy and his partner - danced Argentine Tango very well and announced the places where they teach - beginning, intermediate and advanced classes.  Overall - it was a fun evening, but we would like to make a small suggestion re: the distribution of the informational flyers - which appeared well designed but not widely distributed.  The promotional materials need to be on the seats so when the public sits - they quickly put those in their pockets.  That's how we do effective publicity campaigns in Chicago and in New York City.
