theater | the magic of a live performance
The magic of the theater.
The possibility of summoning the goblins of Lorca ...
The vibrant energy of the audience, modifying and being part.
The empty theater and its sounds, the ritual of the dressing rooms, the corridors of the stage, the murmur of people taking their seats, the silence when the curtain opens and what remains when it closes.
The stage: the wonderful abyss that fascinates me to live.

TV and video | crossing the screen
Get across the screen, that's my challenge.
The intervention of the camera and montage, end up defining much more than my proposal of movement. It is teamwork, or at least that is how I would like it to be - like in the theater, yes, but different.
Moving for the camera's eye is very different from the projection that the live performance requires.
The times I accomplished "something", I was very grateful to be able to perpetuate "my dancing body" in a video.

lessons | tango coaching®
The desire to transmit tango dance in a class, developed in parallel with my career as a dancer.
Participating in different productions, I traveled a lot from the beginning, and in many of those places I was also invited to give seminars and different formats of tango dance classes, either for recreation or in choreographic productions.
I am passionate about that place of transmission and sharing. So much so, that I think that in recent years it has been capturing almost all my time and attention.

She come out from "la milonga"
Alejandra learned the art of tango in the tango dance halls of Buenos Aires -milongas-, integrating the technique and essence of the milonguerx dancers.
At the same time, she incorporated contemporary techniques as release and contact improvisation, pilates, yoga, spherodynamics, and everything she thought necessary to study in order to face her wishes and challenges with tango dance.
Alejandra Gutty is Ontological Professional Coach, certified by ICF (International Coaching Federation).

Social and scenic
Share the perceptions learned in the milongas, creating bridges with highly selective information on the functioning of the body's mechanics.
"From the inside to the outside" has been the name of the seminars she had been dictating now for many years all around the world (since 2008). Starting from the "inner dynamics", she focuses on encouraging and guiding the development of individuality, improving the coordination and communication between partners.
At the same time, it includes knowledge of other tools of expression, maximizing personal potential, and enabling the development of a dance prepared for different scenic proposals.
"Challenging paradigms, limits and habits."

the roots...
"I want to do with you what spring does with cherry trees." (Pablo Neruda)
Rising
Alejandra Gutty was born October 8 th of 1976, right in the midst of historically dramatic events, in the city of La Plata, capital of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
From her childhood, she was very curious about music, moving, reading and writing, all activities that she could enjoy alone and without rules, ("There was no time to allow those whims to be schooled").
Later, she did a few baby steps at the University UNLP, architecture and design.
Her passion for the art of tango was revealed in the dance halls of Buenos Aires: the milongas.
The creation of details was constant. Unique and unrepeatable improvisation in a dialogue of sensations, born from the profound necessity to connect, express and share.
It was the language of Tango, much more than a dance …

Wishing
I don't think we have to wait for someone or something to confirm or even alow our wishes.
We have to firmly and passionately believe in what we want, and work to achieve it: every day.
There will always be someone who does not see your value, you have to make sure that you are not yourself.

Doing
Do it.
With the conviction of the wishing.
Let the desire be immense.
So much so, as to sustain the uselessness of everything we do, and even so, wanting to do it as if some of that could be transcendent ...
Cheers!
