Bulent Karabagli

Bulent Karabagli is a new generation tango dancer and teacher whose style strongly reflects the traditional roots of Argentine tango. He is well known for his innovative and improvisational approach to tango as well as his fine sense of musicality and elegance. Bulent's home base is in Canada and for 14 years has participated in its rich and reputable tango scene in Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa. His passion for the dance has also taken him to Argentina and Europe to study and explore with many internationally renowned teachers and professionals.

Bulent brings to his dancing an extensive background as a visual artist. His paintings and drawings express vibrant color, simplicity and lyricism of line, humour and the human form. His artistic maturity shapes his tango. Drawing from these diverse and creative explorations, he generously shares his knowledge with students of every level. As a teacher he stresses the importance of understanding the structural foundation of tango, making good connection and clear communication, moving smoothly between open and close embrace and developing musical timing. With a keen grasp of these basic elements, the dance partners can then find the ease and freedom to bring complexity to their floor craft and develop their improvisational skills. Bulent likes to encourage in his students, the sensitivity and confidence needed to experiment with tango. 

The dance becomes more than its steps. The dance becomes creative communication in addition to his teaching.
