VALEN & LEO
Their love for tango, teaching, and dancing unites them deeply. They regularly teach seminars in BsAs and perform at the most popular Buenos Aires milongas. With an amazing second place finish in the 2023 Buenos Aires Tango Championship, they recently performed at the Tulum Tango Festival (Mexico) and taught in San Martin de los Andes (Argentina). Now that they are on a world tour, we are so lucky to have them in Boston. Their dancing is beautiful and with refined technique, musicality, and the essence of tango.
