About Jaimes & Gilda
Jaimes Friedgen is one of the most accomplished and influential Tango teachers in the United States. Starting Tango as a teenager in the mid-Nineties, Friedgen had the opportunity to study with many extraordinary dancers and teachers, many of whom are no longer with us. He has carried forward their teaching as well as his own innovations by either founding or consulting for some of the most successful Tango schools in the U.S. and abroad. His uniquely effective system of teaching draws the most dedicated Tango students from all over the world; no matter the level, from absolute beginner to professional Tango dancer, Friedgen has a knack for finding the most useful challenges to improve one’s Tango. www.jaimesfriedgentango.com
Gilda Stillbäck is a contemporary dancer, tango dancer and choreographer educated at The Royal Swedish Ballet School. After finishing her education in 2001 she discovered Argentine tango and moved to Paris and later to Buenos Aires to study with the foremost and most experimental teachers of the time. She started collaborating with Ezequiel Farfaro with whom she created the tango performance "B rör mig" (Touch me) that toured in Sweden and Argentina 2006-2009. Since then Gilda has been teaching and performing around the world collaborating with tango dancers such as Cacu (Lucho) Lucero, Daniel Carlsson, Pino Dangiola, Yanick Wyler amongst others. As a teacher Gilda is highly appreciated for her deep body knowledge and capacity to analyse and explain body mechanics within the movements. www.gildastillback.com
Jaimes and Gilda met for the first time on the dance floor in Amsterdam back in 2003. Since then they've spent many hours dancing and practising. They are very happy to finally start teaching together sharing their deep knowledge, passion and love for tango.
