Known for her musicality and innovative approach, Hsueh-tze has been one of North America’s pioneers in Argentine Tango since 1990, the early days of Tango revival. She draws inspiration from her extensive experiences dancing with the milongueros of Buenos Aires. Her dance blends the richness of Tango tradition with exploratory possibilities.
