JURY 1. In both categories, the jury will be composed of a minimum of 4 (four) members, who— understanding and accepting the rules of the competition, and committing to their compliance—will determine the score of the participating couples. The juries will be appointed in accordance with BA FESTIVALS and THE ORGANIZATION of the Preliminary.

2. All the decisions of the jury will not be subject to appeal. By enrolling, participants accept this condition.

Any jury member who may have had a work relationship or been the teacher of any of the participants of the Preliminary for a period of at least 6 months close to the beginning of the competition, may refrain from scoring such participant. For this purpose, both the voluntary statements of the Jury and the information provided by participants when enrolling will be taken into account. In these cases, to get the couple’s final score, the judges’ scores will be added, and this amount will be divided by the number of jury members who actually voted. The final score for each performance will result from the accumulation of points, given by each member of the jury on a scale of 1 to 10 (with decimals), in accordance with the criteria described in the EVALUATION CRITERIA per category (mandatory document, please read below).

3. The jury will choose a winning couple in each category. Also, the jury (with the agreement of THE ORGANIZATION) may grant awards and special mentions to the second and third place, and will be entitled to award other mentions if deemed appropriate.

4. In exceptional cases (power interruption, incidents on stage, etc.), the jury and the supervisor may determine that contestants should dance to additional songs to arrive at a fair verdict. Participants may not refuse to perform.

5. In case of a tie, the couples with the same final score will have to break the draw, either by dancing two additional songs in the Tango de Pista category, or by performing a new choreography in the stage tango category, until a winning couple emerges from the votes of the jury.

SUPERVISOR Appointed by BA FESTIVALS, the Supervisor will bear the responsibility of ensuring the compliance of the present Rules and properly solve any inconvenience not considered in these Rules and establish or inform about the clarifying or interpretative rules that he considers necessary.

FILMING AND PHOTOGRAPHING THE ORGANIZATION of the Preliminary reserves the right to record all the stages of THE COMPETITION, by any means known or to be known—including but not limited to filming, recording, photographing, digitalization, etc.—by itself or third parties, in order to promote and advertise the event. The recorded material obtained will be exclusive property of THE ORGANIZATION of the Preliminary, who will have to turn a copy of it, as established by the Collaboration Agreement, to BA FESTIVALS. By entering the Championship, participants explicitly and irrevocably authorize the use of the recorded material, without this suggesting—or implying—any compensation for any reason whatsoever by THE ORGANIZATION of the Preliminary and/or BA FESTIVALS, in favor of any person or organization that claims entitlement to any right that may be invoked. This clause also includes, without limitations, all photographic material published and/or made available for promotion, advertisement, etc.

A couple’s registration and subsequent check‐in implies knowledge and acceptance of these Rules by each one of the participants.

*Clarification about dance level:  Participation in both “Tango de Pista” and Stage Tango Categories competitions are open to everyone. Professional dancers and amateur dances of intermediate level and above compete in the same category according to the rules established by Tango Buenos Aires Dance World Cup. Adherence to these rules qualifies our competition to be recognized as valid by the main Buenos Aires event.

The distinction between a “professional” and “amateur” dance has less to do with the level of skill and more with a professional status of the dancers. “Professional” means that dancers make a living from teaching and dancing/performing tango, and “amateur” means that they do not, but it does not always imply that the level of the professional couple dance is superior to the level of the amateur couple.

There are dancers for whom tango is their main source of income. They are likely to be good instructors, but their level of dance and performance can vary: the professional couple can be excellent at dance or not so great. On the other hand, there are good amateur couples who do not teach tango and get no income from performances, but have achieved an exceptional level of dance. There is also the case of stage dancers who only dance choreographed pieces, but are helpless when it comes to social dancing: they cannot dance in milongas. Finally, there are very skilled social dancers (people who only dance in milongas), but who neither teach nor perform tango. They might be excellent salon dancers. To accommodate different ways in which dancers excel at tango, the two divisions for the competition were established: “Tango de Pista” (salon tango; social category for both amateurs and professional) and Stage Tango (performance category for amateur advanced level and professional level dancers).

The Best Places To Experience Tango In Argentina

Argentine tango is an extremely varied and social dance medium that is the pride and joy of Argentinian locals. For them, it is a way of life, an expression of their culture. It is a pure representation of their heritage and a symbol of the nation’s creativity, with hundreds of teachers, guides and festivals located around the country. We take a look at the top ten places to experience this influential genre of dance. Argentinian tango has a complex and unclear history with many different styles of the dance being currently practiced. These styles originated from the 1900s and are popular today. Tango Canyengue is a rhythmic style of tango which contains all the fundamental elements of traditional Argentine tango. Tango Orillero refers to the style of dance that developed away from the town centers where there was more available space and therefore more freedom. And Salon Tango is danced socially in the salons of Buenos Aires. These styles were practiced throughout the golden era of Argentine tango (1935-1952) when milongas, a tango event, were held in large dance venues and full tango orchestras performed. After a lull, tango then re-emerged at the end of the Argentine military dictatorship in 1983. Since then new styles have developed such as the Tango de Fantasia, Tango Nuevo and Estilo Milonguero.

1. plaza dorrego.

Located in San Telmo, Plaza Dorrego is one of the oldest public spaces in the city, dating back to the 18th century. The picturesque Sunday market, which began in the 1970s, is a popular attraction and a good place to watch the locals perform tango throughout the day. At the end of the day, when the market starts to close, free tango lessons are often given in the Plaza.

2. La Viruta

3. Mente Argentina Tango School

The renowned Mente Argentina Tango School combines various teaching techniques from experienced and certified professors.

The classes include milonga outings at tango clubs around the city to practice both the dance and experience the flourishing tango scene in Buenos Aires. Located in Palerm, the courses run for a minimum of two weeks.

Additionally, the instructors conduct tango tours around Europe.

She provides authentic tango-based tours from historic walks to classes and also accompanied outings to milongas . The technical and cultural aspects of the dance are some of the many things covered in the tour, as well as an insight into the nature and history of tango music and how it is played in a milonga .

CURÚ BY CAR

CABO BLANCO

It was here where due to the initiative of a Swedish citizen, Nicholas Wessberg and his wife Denmark citizen Karen Morgensen, that the world famous Costa Rican national park and protective areas system was born. The visionary project turned about 1,250 hectares of pastureland with an initial 15% of primary natural forest into a strictly protected area. This allowed the hitherto depleted pasture lands to regenerate, with minimal human aid and mostly through natural means, seeds being dispersed by wind and carried by water or animals expanding their habitats, serving the original uncut forest as genetic bank. Today that 85% of pastures land are a secondary forest in process of equilibrium.
