MIT June series with Javier Rochwarger
The well-loved tango teacher, Javier Rochwarger from Buenos Aires, will be back to Boston to teach with me (and Sveta) two special workshop-series at MIT on Tuesdays in June! Both series are intermediate level and we highly recommend signing up for both. In his classes Javier focuses on technique and connection with the partner. His students praise him for the exceptional personal attention that he provides even in group classes, and for his patience and warm sense of humor. Pre-pandemic Javier was coming regularly to Boston for five years. His classes were always in high demand, and we have received excellent feedback from the participants. Don’t miss it!!! **For discounts for both series, early registration incentive and more information about Javier please see below.
7:00pm: Dancing in ‘la baldosa’. La baldosa is a tile on the floor – the class is about dancing in small spaces.

ABOUT JAVIER: Javier is one of Buenos Aires’s newer generation of tango instructors. Grounded, sensual, and musical, in the past twenty five years he has taught classes throughout the U.S. , Japan and Spain, as well as in Buenos Aires, where he lives. Javier’s fluid and intimate style of dancing seamlessly integrates a variety of influences, making his insights valuable whether you consider yourself a devotee of milonguero style or a nuevo tango renegade. Rarer still is his practical understanding of how the body moves and of how to communicate complex concepts to students of all levels. See Javier dance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BknTPljsgAw
