ARTISTS
Barbara Keran & Luka Lovric
Barbara and Luka are a dance couple running the ‘Tangoneo’ dance school in Zagreb. They are both great admirers of Argentine tango. You will certainly enjoy their workshops and performance during the festival.
They perceive tango not only as a dance, but as a personal growth opportunity. It is an inspiration to always seek for more and better. They believe that everybody has a rhythm and everybody can dance. Passion and expressing emotions are the key element of tango. These things also can be learned and Barbara and Luka insist upon it from the day one.
They are eternal students, happy when learning new stuff, thus perfecting themselves along the way. They enjoy delivering their knowledge to students, keeping in mind that tango is also a mental process. Their energy and love for tango are contageous and inspiring.
Together, they attended workshops, seminars and took private lessons from the greatest tango maestros. Some of them are: Rosa Forte & Carlos Pérez, Mariana Montes & Sebastián Arce, Vanesa Villalba & Facundo Piñero, Roxana Suarez & Sebastián Achaval, Agostina Tarchini & Sebastián Jimenez and many others…
Milos Miloradovic & Dusica Djekanovic
Milos Miloradovic is a maestro, performer and choreographer with considerable experience, whose reputation reaches far beyond our region.
He learned from numerous European and Argentinian maestros. While learning tango, he also developed his unique teaching skills. With these skills and his kind personality he conquers the hearts of his students wherever he goes.
During the Konavle Tango Retreat and Festival, he is running a 6-day beginner tango course. Milos and his partner Dusica Djekanovic will have workshops on Friday and Saturday and a performance on Saturday’s milonga.
