5 EXTRAORDINARY

Couples

These two individuals serve as an extraordinary source of inspiration for us, consistently leaving us in awe. Their tango performances are a remarkable blend of energy, technical precision, strength, allure, and potency, making them truly unparalleled.

These two modern tango trailblazers left us wanting more! And, while not an easy task to book, as they are among the most sought-after maestros, they will join us once again to dazzle, and elevate our tango skills!

A dynamic duo who have been captivating audiences since they began dancing together in 2012. Crowned the World Tango Stage Champions in 2014, they’ve earned their place among tango’s elite with their breathtaking performances, innovative choreography, and unwavering dedication to the dance.

Two extraordinary talents from the heart of Patagonia, Argentina, whose dance journeys began at an early age—Cynthia with the grace of ballet and the fire of flamenco, and Sebastian with the passion of Argentine tango and the spirit of folklore.

Stephanie Fesneau and Fausto Carpino have captivated the tango world since joining forces in 2011. Hailing from France and Italy, respectively, they each bring a rich background in dance to their partnership.
