Carolina Bonaventura
Carolina
Bonaventura is
a dancer, teacher, director, and choreographer of tango and comprehensive arts
training. Over the past two decades, her professional career has developed in
two distinct and complimentary areas, the educational and the artistic, with
the same intensity and dedication.
In the
year 2007, Carolina created Mariposita de San Telmo, a space dedicated to
tango. In the school, she develops her teaching and artistic activities. She
teaches regular classes specializing in individual technique, technique for
couples, tango salon, tango escenario, and choreography training.
As a
choreographer, she directs the choreographic groups of Mariposita and expands
the diffusion of tango and the porteña culture in Argentina and throughout the
world through a program called Efecto Mariposita.
Since September of 2009, she has choreographed and directed her Tango Company, Mariposita de San Telmo.
Conserving
the purest tango acquired through the body language is what allows her to
create without losing the traditional essence.
Through
searching and constant adaptation, she incorporated elements from other
disciplines that complimented her interpretive capacity.
