Third Wednesdays of the month
8:15-10:00 pm

$30 Milonga Combo: Beginners class (7-8:15 pm) + Milonga (8:15-10 pm)

Even here on an island in the middle of the Pacific, you can experience the magic of tango, as if you were in its homeland of Argentina!

Join Argentinian artist-in-residence Josefina Stellato and the rest of your tango community on the 3rd Wednesday of every month for a Milonga. Discover the ease of dancing on what is reputedly the best dance floor on O’ahu: the sprung mango wood floor at Still & Moving Center…

We include and encourage dancers of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels to join us.

Please wear indoor dance shoes or socks. To also take Josefina’s Beginner’s Class before Milonga, sign up for the Milonga Combo.

Please Note: Milonga takes the place of the Argentine Tango Followers’ Technique class on the 3rd Wednesday of the month.

Do you recall the first time that watching a tango performance virtually swept you off your feet?!? That’s the feeling you’ll get watching and learning with Josefina Stellato! The closeness, the confidence, the breath-taking swoops and tantalizing pauses…

Josefina Stellato has been dancing Argentine tango at the highest level for more than two decades. She’s now arrived at Still & Moving Center as our Artist in Residence for about 6 months!

As a performer, Josefina has been a member of renowned choreographer Leonardo Cuello’s tango company at the National University of the Arts in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She’s been a cast member of Social Tango Project for the past decade, performing in multiple theaters in Buenos Aires! In 2023, Josefina participated in the company’s North American tour and performed at Kennedy Center in New York City.

As a teacher, Josefina deepened her understanding of pedagogy under the direction of Dana Frigoli and the DNI Tango school in Buenos Aires, where Josefina served as a senior faculty member. She was also an official member of the DNI Tango Company, where she participated in the live shows “Dos, lo que se disuelve”, “Asimétrico”, “Seres Materiales”; a film version of “Dos”, and “Remueve la piel suspire”, which Josefina created and choreographed.

Josefina has taught and performed at international festivals in Europe and during the pandemic gained a devoted following for her online lessons. Welcome to Still & Moving Center, live and in person, Josefina!
