The Berkeley Tango Studio is Pleased to Present the Beautiful and Elegant
Silvina Valz
Teaching Argentine Tango for the First Time in the SF Bay Area
Oct. 30-Nov. 5, 2006

Silvina is Argentine by birth, and studied tango with    Gustavo Naveira and 
Pepito Avellaneda, as well as  classical ballet, jazz and gymnastics.  She 
is a specialist in "dansevoltage" a form of aerial dance.  She now lives in 
Paris and choreographs with the Teatre a Vitez.  She  often partners with 
the famous milonguero "Dany El Flaco" for performances and teaching at 
festivals worldwide. Many students are inspired by her passion,  charm and 
knowledge.   She is energetic, empathetic and enthusiastic in helping 
students arrive at their own level of perfection and is able to break down 
technically  difficult movements into an understandable level.   She  is a 
true "milonguera" who enjoys dancing with   students and dancers of all 
levels.  She will be here a short time only, so don't miss this chance.
