Max Pollak, named one of “25 to Watch in 2007” by Dance Magazine, was the first person to merge American Rhythm Tap with authentic Afro-Cuban music and dance. Capturing the charged electricity and power of a Latin jazz Orquesta," RumbaTap features a multi-talented international cast of musicians and dancers and has toured throughout Europe, Japan, and the United States; recently performing to a capacity crowd at New York City's Central Park Summer Stage.
Pollak has published articles on tap dance in several international publications including Dance Magazine; has recorded with the Cyro Baptista, Paul Carlon Octet, Grupo Los Santos, TrioNada, and members of the Tito Puente Orchestra; has appeared in films and documentaries including the critically claimed Como Se Forma Una Rumba with some of Cuba's most prestigious salsa musicians; and was the tap coach for lead actor Pablo Veron on the Sally Potter film The Tango Lesson.
Today Pollak is recognized worldwide as the creator of "RumbaTap” and is a 2008 recipient of the New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship in Choreography.
