Oscar Casas is an experienced teacher, and a well-known figure in the milongas of Buenos Aires. He is very milonguero, and respected by the "old guard" in the milongas of BA. He grew up in the tango barrio Parque Patricios, Buenos Aires, living and breathing tango. His parents were avid tango dancers and, in the 1950's and 1960's, they organized three different milongas per week, which regularly drew in 400-500 dancers.
Oscar teaches with energy and humor, emphasizing concepts, specializing in improvisation always interpreting the music and respecting the character of the different orchestras. He is especially interested in the dynamics and cadencia of the dance. Everything he teaches is applicable to crowded milongas.
