Mez Charney: Mez’s love of tango was instilled by her grandmother Alba, who was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and spent her 1930s childhood dancing with her tanguero father in their living room. As part of her unending quest to learn about the art of tango, Mez has studied with Colorado’s many talented teachers and has traveled throughout the USA and internationally, attending numerous festivals, marathons, and workshops. Last year, Mez performed with the Denver Performance Team under the direction of Jesica Cutler and Facundo Maisano. For the last two decades, Mez’s other movement passion has been the study and teaching of Ving Tsun, a traditional martial art. She had previously run the Women’s Training Program at Denver Kung Fu and is currently the director of Queering Ving Tsun.
