about ERIC

Eric Jørissen is one of the most popular and inspiring tango teachers in the world.

Eric is the founder of El Corte, in Nijmegen, The Netherlands, one of the most famous schools/houses of tango in the world. Dancers from all over the world travel to El Corte year around for weekend-long milongas and special events.
Eric studied dance education at the Rotterdam conservatory. He has been dancing for 35 years. He began dancing the tango in 1987, inspired by his tango father Pepito Avellaneda. He teaches on a regular basis in Nijmegen, London, Cape Town and NYC. Many other cities are visited on a yearly basis. Eric travels 150 days per year.
His teaching focuses on tango for the social dance floor. He is known for his inspiraton, ideas and sense of humor. Eric's creative energy permeates his dance and his teaching.

Eric teaches in the US on a limited basis. This year Atlanta is the only city in the US (other than his base in New York) he will visit in his June tour.

We have put together a really exciting program of classes. We will also have a special edition of LUNA, and before the milonga we will have a special class open to everybody and not included in the weekend passes.
