Process & Schedule

Schedule & Program

Our dance journey is designed so that you can dive deep into tango – while also having space for relaxation, enjoyment, and connection. The day follows a loving rhythm of movement, exchange, and rest.

The morning begins relaxed with a hearty breakfast on the terrace – surrounded by fragrant herbs, ancient olive trees, and the gentle warmth of Sicily. After that, an intensive workshop session with Carlos & Duygu awaits you. This is about technique, musicality, conscious movement, and genuine connection.

The afternoon belongs to you: After lunch, there is plenty of free time to relax by the pool, take a walk in nature, enjoy a sauna session, or take a nap in the sun. In the late afternoon, you will deepen what you have learned in another training session – focusing on expression, dynamics, and dance freedom.

In the evening, it gets sociable: During the communal dinner, you can expect the diversity of Sicilian cuisine, accompanied by local wines and heartfelt conversations. And afterwards? The magic of the night begins. Every day we open the dance floor for the milonga – under the open sky, by candlelight, and with music that touches the heart.

Special highlights round off the experience: an Italian cooking evening, where you get hands-on and prepare pasta together with others. A wine tasting with regional drops directly from the estate. And as a festive highlight of the journey: the Milonga Mascherata – an elegant gala evening with an optional mask, stylish atmosphere, and plenty of space for dance, expression, and lightness.

All workshops are conducted in German, English, or Spanish. The content is tailored for intermediate to advanced levels. You travel alone or with a dance partner – we are happy to help find suitable pairs.

This journey offers you intense learning experiences, deep encounters, and the freedom to arrive fully in yourself – and in dance.

The dance teachers

Carlos Paredes

Tango World Champion, stage dancer & passionate teacher

Carlos comes from Colombia and now lives in Germany. For over 27 years, Tango has been his language of life – powerful, precise, and full of emotion. He became 2006 World Champion in the category Tango Escenario in Buenos Aires and has since danced on international stages with orchestras such as Color Tango, Sexteto Mayor, and Fernando Marzán.

What makes him special: his combination of technical excellence, deep musicality, and the ability to truly touch people with his presence.

Carlos teaches Tango as an art form – with respect, clarity, and the desire to foster genuine connection in dance.

Duygu Nacar

Dancer, educator & creative force in Tango

Duygu comes from Germany and brings a unique, powerful energy to Tango as a former hip-hop dancer. For 10 years, she has dedicated herself to this form with passion – inspired by improvisation, body language, and musicality.

Her teaching style is precise, humorous, and conscious. She imparts technical tools as well as confidence in one's own expression. For Duygu, Tango is a wordless dialogue – honest, powerful, deep.

As a dance couple

Carlos & Duygu met in Colombia – and years later found each other in Germany as a dance couple. What connects them is the passion for a Tango that is more than figures: a lively, breathing dialogue between two people.

Their shared style combines stage experience with organic movement, modern didactics, and a palpable joy in sharing. They teach in German, English, and Spanish – and create spaces where you can develop, experiment, and grow as a dancer.

Komm mit uns auf unsere erste gemeinsame Tango-Reise

Mit Herz, Humor & echter Verbindung

„Diese Reise ist etwas ganz Besonderes für uns.

Zum ersten Mal laden wir euch ein, gemeinsam mit uns zu tanzen, zu lernen und zu genießen – nicht in einem Studio, sondern inmitten von sizilianischer Natur, Kultur und Lebensfreude.

Wir bringen unsere Erfahrungen aus Shows, Workshops und dem Unterricht zusammen – als Tanzpaar, das sich gerade neu gefunden hat und mit euch wachsen möchte.

Was uns verbindet, ist mehr als Technik: Es ist die Liebe zur Musikalität, die Freude am Lernen – und der Glaube daran, dass Tango nicht perfekt sein muss, sondern echt.

Wenn du Lust hast, dich weiterzuentwickeln, zu lachen, zu fühlen und neue Inspiration mitzunehmen – dann bist du bei uns genau richtig.

Wir freuen uns riesig auf diese gemeinsame Zeit mit dir!“

– Carlos & Duygu

Tango. Enjoyment. Community. And a lot of feeling.
