Together since 2005, they form a dance partner in a meeting of ideas and knowledge, resulting in a particular dance style that unites traditional tango with their own original creations. With techniques extracted from the observation of the dance, they create a revolutionary method of integral education of Tango using a complete and efficient pedagogy, dedicated to the teaching of amateurs and the training of professionals. They share their time between Buenos Aires and Paris, spreading their art; traveling the world participating in international Festivals and Tango shows. In Buenos Aires and abroad they are considered as one of the leading tango couples and have been awarded as ambassadors of the genre. They participate every year as teachers in the CITA International Festival of Buenos Aires.
