[Tango-L] Interview with Gustavo Naveira, Part 1

[Keith]

Chris,

You are an absolute nobody and have not even earned the right to comment on a great dancer 
and teacher such as Gustavo Naveira, who has been a major influence on Tango and on thousands 
of  Tango dancers around the world. Chris, just who the hell do you think you are? Well I'll tell you - 
you're a nobody and you always will be. We can't all be major players in the world of Tango, but at 
least learn to respect those who are. If you love and respect Tango, how can you not admire and
respect a maestro such as Gustavo Naveira? There's only one answer - you know nothing about 
Tango, which is something I've long suspected from your petty and malicious postings. 

Apologies to the List, if you consider this to be a flame, but enough is enough. Which Argentine 
maestro is next on some nobody's hit-list?  

Keith, HK

>Hi Chris,
>
>The smiley after your comment does not take the edge out of a cheap shot. I 
>have no problems with the video you send, but is it necessary for you to 
>defame Gustavo Naveira? Way back in the last century, I had watched old 
>videos of Gustavo with Olga and was amazed at his great and powerful 
>dancing. It was a great desire of mine to see him in person and learn from 
>him.
>
>We had the great pleasure to meet Gustavo at the very first CITA festival 
>and I was not disappointed. He is a great master. His dancing and teaching 
>are worth all the effort and expense to obtain them. I started back then to 
>get Gustavo to come to the USA and teach. We saw him subsequently at other 
>CITA events and them we traveled to Europe to take lesson from him and ask 
>him to travel to the USA.
>
>Finally, we were lucky to host Gustavo and Giselle Anne in their first 
>visit 
>to the USA and they were phenomenal as we expected. Now, Brian Dunn is 
>posting some very interesting and relevant topics of tango and Gustavo 
>Naveira's part in it. Gustavo and Giselle Anne are once again coming to the 
>USA after a several year hiatus. Gustavo will be in California, Colorado 
>and 
>Atlanta. We at Tango Rio have once again the privilege to host G&G in 
>Atlanta.
>
>Gustavo Naveira is not a purveyor of Tango Scientology. Gustavo and Giselle 
>have the respect and admiration of many of the most well know Argentine 
>tango masters (many took their first lessons with him). Gustavo is a true 
>master teacher and innovator. His credentials are impeccable. Please do not 
>malign him.
>
>Thanks,
>
>Manuel
