Argentine Tango Testimonials

Alan Brenner--Student Since 2010
I have been dancing Argentine tango for seven years. I have had the good fortune to take a large number of private lessons from top dancers both in Buenos Aires and when these performers travel in the USA. All of these people are outstanding dancers, but the quality of the teaching varies widely – from excellent to mediocre. The weak teachers generally do not know how to explain a concept, or correct a flaw, and sometimes are simply lackadaisical.
Oleg has been trained by a variety of teachers, but has been especially influenced by Carlos Gavito, considered one of the great maestros of tango and noted for his attention to technical detail. Oleg, in turn, has passed this knowledge on to Asya. Oleg is always fully focused in his teaching and has the ability to discern errors and to clearly explain how to correct them. He has a great breadth of knowledge which he shares with his student, and he can teach both beginning and very advanced students. The Vero Beach area is very lucky to have dancers and teachers of the quality of Oleg and Asya. I know many people who have gone to the mecca of Buenos Aires multiple times but remain mediocre dancers because the instructors provide more of a temporary ego boost than a long term commitment to learning and practice. I believe that a student is better off training with Oleg than taking your chances (and spending more money) in Buenos Aires.

I am passionate about the Argentine Tango. Before receiving lessons with Oleg at Royal Ballroom, I had been taking lessons for six years and still did not have the flow or persision. I made many trips to Argentina multiple times to take Tango lessons, and in addition I went to Milongas, seminars, and performances in both Argentina and New York. Sometimes I would stay in Buenos Aires for a month and have lessons three to four times a day. When I went to the Milongas there and I soon found out that there were many women and few men, and I, a single lady, would be fortunate to dance one time the evening with a sweaty old man. I decided that if I wanted to practice at the Milonga I would have to hire and escort, which I did.
I have to thank Oleg for teaching me what no other teacher has about the Argentine Tango. When I came to Royal Ballroom he began teaching me the fundamentals: how to move, how to stand, how to step, how to hold. None of my past instructors had ever taken the time to teach me the ABCs of the Argentine Tango. My past instructors had taught me showy steps, but without the proper technique I was lost. I am grateful to have found such a wonderful teacher who has met my needs. Oleg, you are very much appreciated and I look forward to taking more lessons with you when I return to Florida.
