Oliver

His first contact with Tango was the summer of 2006, and for the next two years, he learnt from the teachers Julio Mendez and Luis Parra at the dance school, El Social (www.elsocial.ch). Since 2007 till present, he spends time in Buenos Aires in order to learn and improve his Tango with maestros like Raul Bravo, Olga Besio, Carlitos and Rosita Perez, Javier Rodriguez, and Virginia Pandolfi.

Tango de Salon is his passion and specialty.

Oliver is a dedicated teacher who believes in the authenticity and the roots of Argentinian Tango culture. His teaching style is in accordance with the teaching of the old and well-recognized maestros of Buenos Aires. Oliver is teaching since 2009 in Switzerland (Luzern, Zurich and Winterthur). In June 2012, he moved to Dubai where he founded Tango-OK and teaches.

He enjoys organizing special events and since 2008, had been instrumental in events all over Europe, such as mimilonga (www.mimilonga.ch), LET (Lunar Eclipse Tango), various workshops with maestros, marathons and festivals.

He is an internationally recognized Tango DJ and is known as DJ Virulazo. The golden age of Tango between 1930 and 1950 is clearly his preference. The traditional Tango tandas are strictly adjusted and they are same in rhythmical, melodically and thematic content.
