About Julio & Corina:
Julio and Corina are highly respected teachers in Buenos Aires. They are
among the teachers of the 'milongueros' (social tango dancers.) Julio
studied tango from his father, the legendary Miguel Balmaceda, who
taught
many famous tango dancers. Since 1991, Julio has taught tango at the
most
prestigious tango salons in Buenos Aires: Canning, Grisel, El
Parakultural,
Almagro, and La Galeria del tango. Corina started dancing at the age of
6.
She graduated from the National Institute of Dance in Argentina.
When she was 23, she dedicated herself to tango and learned the secrets
of
its culture by dancing with the best old milonguero. Julio and Corina
met
in 1996 and since then, they have been working together in Buenos Aires
and
give workshops to teach the essence of tango in different tango
festivals
in Europe, Asia, and the USA.
As instructors, they are warm, down to earth, and funny. Julio &
Corina's
classes are clear, fun, informative, well thought out, and well
presented.
As dancers, their steps, figures and posture can be characterized by
'elegant, gentle, and round.' Together, they transmit precision and
beauty
in all of their movements. As performers, they have performed with the
famous Orchestra COLOR TANGO. In 1998, they joined the cast of the
famous
Broadway tango show FOREVER TANGO.
