RAQUEL GREENBERG

From 2001 she based herself and lived in Buenos Aires, capital of Tango, where she was teaching and performing, breathing the essence of the Argentine Tango.

Her personal style is the outcome of fusion between traditional tango and modern tendencies, having studied worked and danced with old age milongueros, great masters of the traditional style and the leaders of “new age” tango.

Elegance, grace, musicality and aesthetics within the embrace – the soul of tango, are her guidelines.
