Oscar Casas grew up in Buenos Aires, breathing tango. His father was a milonguero who organized milongas in Parque Patricios, the original tango "barrio". Oscar is a well-known figure in the milongas of Buenos Aires, and his distinctive style is greatly admired by other milongueros. He is well-complemented by his partner in dance and life, Mary Ann Casas, who has been passionate about tango since she discovered it eleven years ago.

Together they have taught workshops and private classes in Buenos Aires, Toronto, and several American cities. Oscar's unique approach to teaching and his charismatic personality have impressed and delighted his students everywhere. He puts his heart and soul into his classes, and his students respond in kind.

For more information on Oscar and Mary Ann, see their web page, www.tangoargentino.ca and/or view some videos of their exhibitions and classes at www.tangovideoproject.com (go to teachers - Oscar Casas).
