Boris Maidanik & Olga Metzner
TangoBETTER Special Presents: April 3-5, London
We are very excited to invite you to a weekend of beautiful connected tango with Boris Maidanik (Buenos Aires) and Olga Metzner (London) on 3-5 April 2020!
OLGA AND BORIS
met in a tango festival some time ago and there was an immediate, beautiful tango connection.
We shared wonderful tandas, we talked quite a lot in person and on the phone, and we built something together that we would so very much love to share with you!
A whole weekend dedicated to connection, deep, fun and emotional. We can't wait!
