They have been instructors at the International Tango Congress (CITA) in Buenos Aires, U.S. Tango Congress in Miami, London International Tango Festival, and the International Tango Festival in Tel Aviv & Jerusalem, and tango weekends, festivals and congresses in Reno, San Francisco, Germany and Brussels. They were awarded the title of World Champions in Argentine Tango at the 1999 IDO Ballroom World Championship competition in Miami. This exciting young couple are receiving rave reviews, both as popular teachers, and as performers, choreographers and producers of their hit show Tango Dreams. October is a beautiful time to visit New Mexico, with the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, crisp fall weather and the aroma of green chile roasting.
