About Michael Nadtochi
For the past 14 years Michael focused entirely on performing and teaching the art of Argentine Tango. He has traveled the world, took part in major international tango festivals teaching and performing at some of the most spectacular venues. Germany, Italy, Denmark, Turkey, Russia, Belarus, Cyprus, Malaysia, Canada, England, Scotland are among the countries that he visited as a special guest and performing artist. He has taught at the major tango festivals in the USA and shared stage with the top professionals at Malbec & Tango House – the very first authentic nightly Argentine Tango show produced in New York. Michael Nadtochi is the director of Argentine Tango Academy of New York , founder of The Art Of Tango LLC and a creator of The Tango Method teaching concept. Being an artist he believes that the greater purpose in becoming a greater dancer lies the process of self-discovery. Classes and workshops are only tools to acquire the necessary technique that will allow one to discover who they truly are and to express their unique personality using the language of the dance.
