Gaby Mataloni is visiting Portland from Buenos Aires for the week of October 14-21, and teaching fundamentals of body control, tango, and music. As a tango teacher, Gaby is fresh and relaxed, prioritizing the students’ comfort during the process and making for an enjoyable experience. At the same time that she deepens the technical aspects of this dance for the students, she also emphasizes the social side of it, its improvisation essence and the connection with another, imparting useful tools for applying at the milonga.
She is a passionate dancer, joyful and intense, combining her milonguera embrace along with strength and technique to build up the Tango Argentino performer that she is.
