Taiwan Tango
When did you start dancing? When I
was a very little girl, around 10 years old. Later, I started to
perform in commercials, concerts and other events, and to
teach.
Why tango? I was always just a
back-up dancer. Last year I thought: what do I really want? It took
me two or three months of exploring new dance and new music. Among
all the dances, I found that tango really sa
tisfied me from all different dimensions-the music, the emotional
aspect, passion, maturity, culture and health. Tango gives me
everything that I want to have in dance, so I went to Buenos Aires
to study it.
When did you open your dance studio in
Beijing? I started Camila Tango Salon in April.
When I came back from Argentina, I tried to contact the bosses of
fitness centers or dance schools, but no one was interested in
starting a new class, so I thought maybe I should do it
myself.
Tell us about your August tango workshops.
In August, we're going to have four weeks with four
different workshops, taught by myself and an Argentinean tango
master. First, we'll introduce tango salon. The second week, we are
going to teach how to dance at a tango party, or milonga. The third
workshop teaches you how to utilize music. You become a piece of
art if you can combine yourself with music. The fourth week is
about 'show tango,' for people who want to be
noticed.
We saw your 2008 music video on Tudou.com. Are you a
huge star in Taiwan? No, nothing like that. This is
my hobby. I actually majored in business administration at Taiwan
University. Anyway, the toutoushidao video was reggaeton, and now
I'm a little bit more mature, so I do tango.
