Robles Dance Presents NOELIA HURTADO

Save the dates!
Noelia Hurtado is an Argentine tango dancer whose work is rooted in tradition and shaped by personal evolution. With more than 25 years of experience, her dance reflects a deep respect for the essence of tango as a social, musical and emotional language.
Her movement is characterized by clarity, elegance and musical sensitivity. She approaches tango as a dialogue — between bodies, music and space — where technique serves expression and connection rather than form alone.
Throughout her career, she has explored different artistic partnerships, understanding change as an essential part of growth. This journey has refined her presence, her listening, and her ability to inhabit the dance with honesty and depth.
As a teacher, Noelia is committed to guiding dancers toward a conscious and efficient use of the body. Her classes focus on axis, balance, weight transfer and communication, encouraging students to develop an authentic tango that is functional, musical and deeply connected.
Her work bridges the intimacy of the milonga and the intensity of the stage, always honoring tango as a living tradition

Special Summer Edition Practica By Tango Rebels

Special Summer Edition Practica By tango Rebels

class 2pm $20

practica 3-6pm $10

class + practica $25

***please note the different location for this session***

We will start at 2 pm with a class by Jarny Choi.

This will be followed by a practica from 3-6 pm Connect-Collaborate-Practice-Dance The idea behind this practica: We invite you to bring an intention to this space – something you want to work on. Whether it be developing fluidity in that butterfly boleo, or working on your walk… Come with an intention to practice and to collaborate with your peers. Who knows – you might have a way of explaining x move that the person next to you has been struggling with in such a way that helps it ‘click’ in their mind. And versa – they may have a gem or two to offer to you. Of course if you simply want to dance, that is welcome, too.

Where – Uniting Church Hall 76 McCracken Street Kensington

Air conditioned, plenty of parking, accessible by public transport tram 57 from CBD Elizabeth Street to Newmarket plaza or Craigieburn line train to either Kensington or Newmarket station.
