Subject: RE: Silvina Valz coming to town
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.
