Mariano Frumboli, also known as Chicho, has undoubtedly played the main role in the creative evolution of Tango in the last 17 years. He is renowned worldwide for his personality, musicality and creativity. He teaches with love and talent, combined with a profound understanding of the dance. His classes are a must for those who are just approaching Tango, as well as for experienced dancers. His dancing is characterized above all by musicality and improvisation. In a unique way, he expresses the essence of the music in his dancing. In his teaching, he emphasises being conscious of the body's movement. Mariano "Chicho" Frumboli, works as a musician, composer, actor, artist, teacher and Tango dancer. Chicho has given the world of Tango one of the greatest gifts that an artist could ever give: his continuous questioning, his endless search, his quest for originality and his full-hearted creativity.

Juana Sepulveda, who is one of the youngest-born stars in the tango sky, spans the entire range of expression with an innovative subtlety and a stunning manifestation of power in every movement. All this blended with her unswerving musicality and pure sensuality. With over 15 years of Tango experience, with great technique, musicality and charisma, today Juana is one of the role models as a Tango dancer. She devotes her time touring the world to transmit her art and experience. Juana and Chicho have been dance partners since 2007. Together they form a unique duo on stage as well as in their teaching classes, seminars and workshops at festivals and major schools in the world. It is with great honour that we welcome them once again for this intense seminar!
