Gaby Mataloni is a born and raised Porteña Argentine Tango Dancer and Teacher. She started her career in Buenos Aires, the hometown of Tango, around 2012. Ever since, she has been connected to the local scene by teaching regular classes, organizing milongas and Tango events and being an active member of the community. In 2015 she started combining her local activities with touring around the world and becoming a Tango ambassador. Since then she has taken part in several international festivals and taught workshops and seminars in many cities of the US, Brazil, Europe, Mexico, Uruguay and Peru.
A versatile professional, Gaby teaches and dances both roles. For her the goal in each class is to create a joyful environment in which the learning process is enhanced and in which students can learn better enjoy more and go deeper. The compass that guides her pedagogy is the training and awareness of our bodies as interpretative, expressive and communicative tools to develop a deep connection within the couple, allowing dancing and sharing better together, as a team. Classes are taught with and through the Tango language, including the cultural aspects and the deep connection to the music.
She will be available for Private Lessons on Dec 1-3rd, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday.
