Bios:

Daniela and Luis met during her first trip to Buenos Aires, at a Villa Malcolm practica. What was supposed to be Luis's last tanda for the night turned into two hours of dancing together. The magical connection they experienced that night led them to share their tango paths. Daniela left her career as an MIT engineering professor to join Luis as his tango partner. Luis left Buenos Aires to join her in New York City, where they currently live.

Daniela and Luis' tango is best described as joyful and heartfelt. Dancing together since 2006, they have quickly become known for their musicality, connection and infectious energy. As performers, they are engaging, vibrant, and emotional, whether improvising or performing one of their comic, theatrical numbers.

As instructors, their ultimate goal is to help students move better, achieve greater depth of connection, and find their own voice in the dance. Students in their classes can expect thorough instruction on tango technique, encouragement to increase their body awareness, lots of personalized feedback, and a healthy dose of humor to complement the mix.

Born in Mar del Plata, Argentina, Luis started dancing tango in 1994 and became a professional dancer in 1997. He taught and performed for several years in Buenos Aires before tango took him to Brazil, Europe and North America. Born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Daniela came to tango from a background in science and engineering. She started dancing tango in 1999 and brings lifelong training in music to the partnership. Daniela and Luis started their partnership with the show "Tango Historias" in Poland, which was also Luis's directorial debut. Since then they have taught and performed throughout the U.S., in France and in Poland, including several festivals such as Portland Valentango and Tangofest, Boston Tango de los Muertos, Princeton Tangofest, NYC Tango Marathon, D.C. Tango Exchange and Festival Nouvel An, in France.
