At an early age I began studying guitar at the Albistur Music Conservatory. Later I attended the Juan J. Castro de la Lucia National Conservatory, where I studied music and percussion. At age 17, theater became my interest, and I dedicated myself entirely to drama, studying with masters such as Rubens Correa, Carlos Gandolfo, Ricardo Bartis, and Cristina Banegas... My education and development in theater included study in voice technique and movement. It was then that I discovered tango, and I became devoted, and I began taking tango classes with acclaimed teachers, such as Julio Balmaceda & Corina de La Rosa, Luis Solanas, Raul Bravo, Rodolfo Dinzel, Gabriel Angio, Damian Essel & Nancy Louzan, "El Pulpo" Esbrez, etc. I continued to further my study of tango along with other forms of dance with other reknowned artists. As well, I finished my university education with a degree in computer systems, which has enabled me to tell the world about TANGO and the magic of dance!
To me, Tango gives us the opportunity to explore the potential of human connection in all it’s forms. Whether it be the meeting of the feminine and masculine within oneself, or going deeper into understanding these aspects in your partner...Tango gives us the tools to reflect and communicate life in a most subtle and profound way. To me, Tango is about refined communication and constant improvisation, with music to move the soul. It is a statement of identity and interaction...of life and love. Join me in the dance .

Amy loves to dance. Her parents soon caught on when impromptu performances were held in the family room on a weekly basis (the fireplace hearth made a perfect stage for a 6yr old in full make up and costume). Unfortunately classes at that age were halted when Amy was extradited for having chicken pox and was too humiliated to return until a much older age...high school. There she was an active participant in the dance team and went on to explore her love of dance in festivals as prestigious as the American Dance Festival after graduation. It was then that her focus changed from Modern and Contemporary to ethnic dances, such as Tribal Bellydance, West African, Flamenco, East Indian, and Japanese Butoh. Here she found her fascination with ethnic cultures, language, dress and customs enabled her to express herself through movement. Her focus and passion settled on Bellydance and she went on to perform with local troupes, Dance La Femme and the Big Sur Natives. Her relationship with the Natives developed a more theatrical side of her dance which lead her to study with Gabriel Roth and the 5 Rhythms, and Vin Marti’s Soul Motion. Here an interesting element of moving meditation and inner reflection was able to come forth in her dance. So how did Argentine Tango follow all of that? Unintentionally, really. When invited to visit a friend in Buenos Aires their first night out was to a local milonga in the historic San Telmo neighborhood. The walls seemed to breathe as crackly muffled tango music forced itself through the wafts of cigarette smoke and she watched as bodies clung to each other as if the world was going to end when the song did. That might have done it, but surely what sealed the deal was when a certain young man by the name of Santiago asked her to dance….and the rest is pure Tango.
