Company History
Tango Fantástico Background Print

Tango Fantástico was founded in September of 2005 to expand the exposure of Argentine Tango, a cultural expressive dance, through performances, workshops and classes.

Argentine Tango is a seductive and intimate dance of unspoken conversation between couples. Captivated by the artistry and precision of the movements, the founder of Tango Fantástico, Sue Flanagan, discovered that Argentine Tango indulged her emotions in a creative, multi-dimensional form, subsequently inspiring her to raise awareness in others.

Business development, marketing and event planning are the responsibility of the founder, Sue Flanagan, an entrepreneur in business with the drive and ambition to achieve.

Sue Flanagan: Managing Director Print

Sue's inspiration to promote Argentine Tango evolved as she watched the impeccable choreography, extraordinary synchronicity, and breathtaking maneuvers created by professional Argentine maestros of Tango performed at Nora Dinzelbacher's Tango Week presented in San Francisco in July of 2005.

The unparalleled experience of working with multiple Argentine maestros in workshops and private classes broadened Sue's horizon.  Of particular note was the profound influence of Jorge Torres and his partner Mariela Franganillo.

Currently Sue assists Jorge Torres, organizing workshops and scheduling appearances when he visits the San Francisco Bay Area.

  • Jorge Torres
  • Mariela Franganillo

  • Miriam Larici
  • Guillermina Quiroga
