We are thrilled to announce that Daniel Nacucchio & Cristina Sosa are returning to Los Angeles! They got such phenomenal reviews about their workshops & performances at the Southern California Tango Championship & Festival 2017 that we couldn’t help but invite them back to LA for more goodness.
WHO ARE THEY?
Daniel and Cristina broke into the international tango scene when they first won the Tango Mundial in 2008. They were the metropolitano city champions in categories Tango and Milonga and then went on to win the World Tango Championship in the tango salon category.
Since then they’ve traveled, performed, and taught Tango all over the world. They are absolute masters of the tango “salon” style and also adept at stage tango and choreography. Their dance is a culmination following decades of experience and training.
