Isabella & Iwan have learned and developed didactic methods that are precisely attuned to the essence of tango: Enjoyment and well-being while dancing, being able to merge with the music and express your own feelings. Regardless of which dance and music style you prefer.

It is important to us that all movements are organic, refer to the here and now.

We use the roots and the tradition and expand them.

Dissolving boundaries to speak out a contemporary "tango body language".
