Rod Relucio and Jenny have been teaching and performing Argentine tango together since 2009, known for their distinctive style that blends traditional tango with modern influences drawn from Rod’s street dance background and Jenny’s strong musical and athletic foundation. Their dancing is recognized for its clarity, connection, musical sensitivity, and natural expression, creating a unique balance of elegance, innovation, and authenticity.
Based in Chicago, they have taught and performed extensively throughout the United States and internationally, with recent appearances in Athens and Istanbul in 2025, and most recent teaching and performing in Cancun in 2026. As founders of 312 Tango and the Windy City Tango Festival, they are dedicated to sharing tango through teaching, performing, DJing, and organizing events, while inspiring dancers to develop comfort, confidence, and their own artistic voice.
