More to come
Jessica
Jessica came to tango by way of tap, musical theatre, classical violin, and building K-12 dance and theatre programs. It didn't take long for tango to sink its musical and terpsichorean hooks into her, and she loves nothing better than the creative conversations produced in the trio of dancer, partner, and music. As a DJ, she strives for a deeply empathic awareness of the moment & mood, musical pairings, and how music registers in the body and heart.
Sabah
A San Diego and internationally renowned DJ, Sabah got addicted to Tango in the late nineties. It started with dancing and now it includes being a DJ. Tango music occupies his thoughts and energizes his spirit and he is in constant search for good music.
Although he tries to vary the music he plays, He is heavily influenced by the style of dance in Buenos Aires as well as the music played at the milongas there so feel free to call him old fashioned.
He lives for Golden Age music. The emotional impact of the music is what he looks for in addition to the musicality.
Amercia Milonguera
As one of the venue owners, she is the house DJ for tango at La Vie. She has been DJing since 2002, and still remembers the times when Alternative Music was all the rage and still feels a passion for it.
She will keep you dancing to her signature danceable music in the outdoor venue all night long. During the Hurricane Hillary, fueled by rain, wind and whiskey, she went way over time. With any luck we won't have a repeat of the hurricane.
Vincent Wong
From collecting vintage audio for critical listening in a wide variety of music, Vincent found his passion for Tango in Los Angeles 2007. As an active Tango dancer himself, his goal is to make every tanda a massive hit, and he was inspired by how movie makers played soundtracks in a great movie.
