I was born in Argentina, where the rhythms of tango have been woven into the very fabric of my life. For over forty years I have dedicated myself to this dance, and I often say that dancing is the highest wisdom because, for me, tango is how I answer the question of how to live. I dance because it provides me a sublime experience of joy and wisdom, and it opens my life to beauty, allowing me to make each moment a work of art. When I embrace my partner and feel every note of the music, I’m fully present – it’s a profound joy and a genuine emotional connection with another soul. Even after decades of dancing and teaching around the world, I find that every tango is a new journey that continues to inspire and enlighten me, enhancing my humanity with each step.
What motivates me to teach dance is the profound joy of sharing the transformative power of tango with others. Teaching is my way of giving back, nurturing connections, and guiding students toward discovering the beauty, wisdom, and emotional depth inherent in every step. Witnessing my students grow, find their own expression, and experience the authentic human connection that tango offers deeply inspires me. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that by teaching dance, I help others enhance their lives, expand their horizons, and find moments of genuine happiness and self-awareness on and off the dance floor.
