Munich
2002 first contact with tango: beginner's workshop with Tango Maldito; first series of classes with Sonja Armisen, learning both open embrace and close embrace. Tango Fusion Club was started around that time in Munich.
2003 much dancing, some workshops with Fernando and Vilma, Volker (Freiburg),
2004 started first workshops, practicas with Michael and Patrizia, as well as Raul and Karina
2006 regular classes with Michael and Patrizia, slowly adopting to Tango Nuevo's physics and technique, although not yet starting with "flashy dancing" as is often associated with Nuevo.
2007 moved to Ludwigshafen. Started the webpage http://www.rhein-neckar-tango.de
2009 first encounters with tango marathons, El corte. Started the project http://www.tangasm.net
