SUSANA DOMINGUES
<< back
During 1994, Susana managed La Classique
, a downtown Toronto Salsa nightclub, adding to her already extensive promoting experience. Her 1996 move to Vancouver marked the end of over 10 years of close involvement with Toronto's Latin American Community. Susana quickly established herself as one of Vancouver's most respected performers, teachers and promoters of Authentic Latin dance.
Susana's credentials include instruction from many of Tango's current Stars (see My Teachers ). Over the years in Vancouver she has organized workshops and performances with world renown Tango dancers and has also traveled on several occasions to teach Tango workshops in Calgary, Edmonton, Victoria and Hornby Island.
She's was featured in a station ID for BCTV , performed on national television for CBC's ZED Show and CBC's "Courants du Pacifique" covered her performance with Forever Tango's Carlos Gavito in 1999. She's been interviewed regarding tango by VTV and on CBC's national radio program "Bunny Watson Show" . Her teaching was also featured on Life Network's program "The Things We Do For Love".
Susana's dancing has also been featured at the musical performances of Vancouver's own Tango afficionado, Linda Lee Thomas, during concerts for the Music in The Morning Concert Society ; Linda Lee's own Tango Vivo group; and with Argentina's Miguel Angel Pla when she performed to the live performance of bandoneonist Daniel Binelli and Linda Lee Thomas on piano.
