Originally, the school was located around the corner from Central Station. However, after 14 years flourishing stay but renovation plans of the municipality in the offing, private school owners to move to another area.

We visited Tangoschool Cuartito Azul and spoke to the owners, also teachers of the school, Hugo Pool and Marieke Timmer. The teaching team is strengthened by Hendrik Jan van Rijswijk with his wife Ester Huijnen, Regina Lerma Martinez, Stijn Rademakers and Debora Soto. Together they work to spread the dance that is now on the World Heritage List.

We enter into an elegant lobby and delusions us in Argentinian atmosphere, although the nationalities of the dancers very diverse. A spacious wardrobe, reception and bar bring us to the patio with abundant grapes in the summer. There are three rooms, two lessons and a big one for lessons and other events that take place in the school. There is a beautiful living room where the cabeceó can be practiced in the old style tango, and in addition to the decorative piano in the main room you find a stage which is performed regularly mellifluous music.

While talking, we told Cuartito Azul was once a place that already has been tried and tested in the new Buenos Aires. Much was improvised and danced in "open style", with lots of great movements and occasionally a little wild. In the "Cuartito Nuevo classes are more focused on technique, subtlety and ballroom dancing, and there is much room for social encounters.

Hugo and Mary came together twenty years ago by the Dutch tango scene and his

since then besides dance a set that complements daily commitment to tango and another for best results.

People come to the school to dance, be with friends. There have been over the years a lot of cultural events and there will still be many. The age of the dancers varies widely, from 25 to 70 years, and the number of diverse nationalities.

Tango matches find they are not as fit tango. They prefer the inspiration that leads, work together to a high level, parts together in order to arrive at the best.

In September, the Cuarteto Fabian Carbone, the music provided in October was the big band Mala Pinta guest, and in December, the tango orchestra of the Rotterdam Conservatory / Codarts played on a sparkling dance.

The more we talk to them and watch the dancing couples, the more we can imagine that the world needs this dance. Also, because of the fact that medicine and psychiatry were able to underline that music and tango movements can correct the most serious problems of the socialization of people with Parkinson's, autism and depression.

Marieke and Hugo are also aware of this, but have not yet taken effect to the specific therapeutic side of tango. Who knows where they are going to delve more into the future, the interest is there in any case. But for now the days and nights have been filled with regular tango lessons and organizational activities.

In the course of the years his we changed by in this school lesson too give, saysHendrik Jan Our

understanding as torque is improved and intensified, and by being in touch with so many people, we feel fulfilled and useful.

Regina says: I'm very happy to have quit my job and go give this evening lesson. Tango does best woman for me in life, I live in a symbiosis with the dance and experience problems in life differently now, lighter and with more serenity.

We stay for a while to look at the pictures on the walls and the dancers in the lessons.

After a glass of fine Merlot we say goodbye with a promise not to return as a journalist, but as one of the most enthusiastic dance students of the world.
