The Dancers

young age. Collectively they have won 40 gold medals at national competitions and became
World Tango Champions in 2003 and 2005, putting them in the company of Argentina’s most
respected teachers. They are currently regarded as two of the best Show Tango teachers in
Buenos Aires thanks to their students reaching top positions, year after year, in the Tango World
Championships held annually in Buenos Aires. This year German was a judge in the Tango World
Championships. German and Gisela have performed all over the globe. Some of their career
highlights include starring as soloists in Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s stage show Q’Viva

and Britney Spears amongst others, dancing in the international debut of Milonga under the
direction of acclaimed contemporary choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, and performing as
guest artists at Sampled and Latitude Festival in the UK in 2014. German and Gisela’s biggest
