[Tango-A] NA-E: Maximiliano Gluzman returns to New York City - May 14th-27th

[Francesca]

It is a great pleasure to announce the return of Maximiliano
Gluzman to New York City. 

Maxi is a  porteño dancer who proudly continues the tradition of his
hometown social dance.  His professional
life in tango is divided into two main areas: researching the dance of the old
generation milongueros and teaching. Precisely, his teaching is about sharing
the magic of the  porteño dance
with the rest of the world: its technique, its culture, and its mystery. A
magic that, as difficult as it is to conceptualize, he has been able to
transmit to his students from many countries. His outstanding qualities as a
teacher and as a dancer has gained him a great following during his previous
visit to New York. 

Maxi is returning this week and will have a busy schedule of classes and
performances starting this weekend:

Friday May 14th 
Ukrainian Village/Dance Tango Milonga
7:15-8:15 - Pre-milonga class 
11PM Performance with Ann-Sophie Persson

Sunday May 16th

7PM Intermediate class
>From 8PM and until the end of the milonga, Maximiliano will be available to
teach “mini-private” classes of 15 minutes each. During the class Maximiliano
will evaluate your dancing and give you suggestions and exercises to improve
your weak spots. If requested, the class can be video taped with your
camera/video camera or we can provide you with a DVD of the class. Cost of the
class is $25. You can reserve your spot by emailing me at francescabl25 at gmail.com.

Maxi will also teach a very insightful series of workshops on Saturday May 22nd and
