Argentine Tango Workshop Maximiliano Gluzman Maxi is one of the top milongueros of the new generation in Argentina. The tango that Maxi transmits is based upon communication between dancers in a continuously close embrace, musical interpretation & respectful navigation on the dance floor. Consequently, his lessons are based on posture, leading & following, & musicality as a source of creativity. He focuses on improvisation as key to develop a dance that is fun & enjoyable for the couple, while still comfortably circulating in a limited space. Maxi studied with the most renowned Argentine teachers in this style: Susana Miller, Ana Maria Schapira, Pedro 'Tete' Rusconi, Pocho y Neli, Ricardo Vidort & Jorge Kero. He travels regularly to Europe & the USA to teach & perform.
