LUIS BIANCHI Born in Mar del Plata, Argentina, he
started dancing tango in 1994 and became a
professional dancer in 1997. He studied with Los
Dinzel, Gabriel Angio and Natalia Games, Carlos
Rivarola, Geraldine Rojas and Javier Rodriguez,
Osvaldo and Miguel Zotto, Chico Frumboli and Eugenia
Parilla, Pablo Villaraza and Dana Frigoli, among
others. He taught and performed for several years in
Buenos Aires before tango took him to Brazil, Europe
and North America.

DANIELA PUCCI Born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, she came to
tango from a background in science and classical
piano, which she has played for the past 20 years. She
started dancing tango in 1999 and studied with
Valencia Batiuk, Melina Brufman, Silvina Vals and
Mariela Franganillo. Together with Luis, she has
taught and performed throughout the U.S., in France
and in Poland, including several festivals.

LUIS and DANIELA’s tango is best described as joyful
and heartfelt, displaying fluidity, musicality and a
unique blend of traditional and nuevo tango within the
embrace. Combining their diverse backgrounds, they
have developed a body-centered teaching methodology
that focuses on proper alignment and release of
tensions as the keys to effortless connection and
dancing. Their classes emphasize technique,
improvisation and musicality and are characterized by
a relaxed atmosphere. They enjoy working closely with
each student, believing that personalized attention is
essential to the learning process.
