Eva Garlez & Pablo Rodriguez

Eva Garlez and Pablo Rodriguez are internationally recognized Argentine tango teachers and performers. Originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, they have chosen Albuquerque as their home base since 2015, after traveling all over the world in recent years giving seminars and performances.

Currently, they continue expanding tango all over the U.S., visiting tango communities and festivals, and sharing their knowledge and charisma.

Pablo Rodriguez comes from a family with an extensive musical pedigree; Porteña traditional music is in Pablo’s blood. Because of his infatuation with the dance, Pablo began to seek expertise in recognized milongueros, developing his own personal style of dance and teaching.

Eva Garlez’s love of dancing is transmitted as she teaches and performs. She has become an outstanding milonguera, having taught and performed with great milongueros. Her dance is elegant, intuitive, and personal, which enhances the beauty of the dance.

They are members of CID (International Dance Council), which is an official partner of UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization. They provide instruction for all levels of dancers at Bien Milonguero tango school in Albuquerque. bienmilonguero.com.
