There are many teachers of tango but there are but a few universally recognized masters of this art form. Fabian is considered one of the great professors of our time and he is vital creative force on the cutting edge of tango. Fabian and Gustavo have spawned many unique and innovative ideas which have greatly influenced a new generation of tango dancers including Pablo Veron, Julio Balmaceda, Chicho, Luciana and many others. Fabian is revered by his students not only for his knowledge and insight but also for his generosity, humor and dynamic earthy style. Fabian and Gustavo are the founders of Cosmo Tango and produce the International Tango Congress in Buenos Aires, the premier tango event of the year. Always innovative and creative, Fabian has the rare ability to bring understanding to even the most complex material. He will be accompanied by Carolina, the exquisite, talented former 1st ballerina at the famed Teatro Colon.
