Greg Kovaciny, For Iowa City Tango Club
Maximiliano Gluzman started dancing in 1997. He soon discovered milonguero style and studied with the most renowned Argentine teachers in this style: Susana Miller, Ana Maria Schapira, Pedro "Tete" Rusconi, Pocho y Neli, Ricardo Vidort and Jorge Kero. Even if his main source of practice has been dancing in the milonga through endless hours, he has also embraced teaching as a main activity.
He taught at Susana Miller's La Academia in Buenos Aires at all levels as well as with Milva Bernardi. Maximiliano was one of the organizers of the International Milonguero Meeting that took place in Buenos Aires in February 2007.
The tango that Maxi transmits is based upon communication between dancers in a continuously close embrace, musical interpretation and respectful navigation in the dance floor. Consequently, his lessons are based on posture, leading and following, and musicality as a source of creativity. He focus on improvisation as key to develop a dance that is funny and enjoyable for the couple, while they can still comfortably circulate in a limited space.
Maxi's visits to Iowa City have been well-attended and comments on them are universally positive. We are very pleased Maxi is coming back for a fifth visit, and hope this can continue. We are glad Iowa City has become a regular destination when he is traveling in the United States!
If you wish to host out-of-town guests coming in for the weekend that can be a great help to the success of the weekend. More folks are hearing about Iowa City as a place to dance and learn tango. Contact Juan Marcos 319-354-1526 if you can make space available for guests coming in for our Maxi Gluzman Workshop Weekend. THANK YOUR FOR YOUR SUPPORT OF TANGO IN SE IOWA!
