Alex Krebs: Tango dancer, instructor, musician.

Alex has been dancing Argentine Tango since 1997 and teaching worldwide since 1998, including performances in Buenos Aires. He has run his all-Argentine tango studio, Tango Berretin, in Portland, Oregon since 2001 and has also studied the bandoneon since 2001. Alex plays bandoneon and directs his own tango orchestra, The Alex Krebs Tango Sextet, as well as plays with Tango Pacifico and others.

Alex is a complete fanatic about the dance, and shares his passion with his students. He teaches for the social dance floor emphasizing the improvisatory nature of tango through strong communication between lead and follow while also connecting with the music. Alex gives his students the vocabulary necessary for each person to find their own unique way of dancing — dancing the tango of their own body.
