Instructors' Bios:

Damian Lobato started dancing tango in 1991. In 2000, he left his profession as a dentist to devote himself to dancing professionally. Since then he has been teaching and performing in Argentina, Europe and the US. Additional information is available at Damian's webpage.

Luiza Paes, Brazilian-born, music student since age six, worked in musical education and vocal technique for many years. Her very first tango experience was in 1997 in Portland. Back in Brazil, Luiza met Norberto "Pulpo" Esbrez who became her teacher and then partner for nearly 10 years. Luiza and "Pulpo" traveled the world teaching and performing. Since February 2008 she started teaching and traveling on her own and with different partners. Her focus has been teaching musicality along with a technique that opens up possibilities for creativity in the dance.
