A superb teacher, Metin can simplify even the most complicated and involved steps. He teaches concepts that advanced dancers need, but even a beginner can use immediately. Originally from Turkey, Metin has studied primarily with Gustavo Naveira in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He teaches extensively in Europe and the U.S., combining both the traditional and the new elements of tango. "When it comes to following, he doesn't just talk the talk, he walks the walk: I have watched with jaw agape as he danced the follower's part with incredible proficiency and sensitivity." · Saturday March 31 1-3 pm Theory and Foundations of Argentine Tango: Review of the fundamental concepts of placement, axis, lead and follow. This class will be very important for the rest of the series.
