Norberto "El Pulpo" Esbrez been dancing tango for 
nearly 20 years. His father and grandfather
were both respected bandoneon players, and his 
own feeling for the music is evident in his work.
His nickname, “El Pulpo” – the octopus - comes 
from his unique, fluid style, which uses complicated
displacements, ganchos, enganches, and the 
intertwining of the dancers’ legs. His tango steps were
first practised with rock & roll which gave him 
tremendous agility and a very relaxed, almost casual
approach to his dance style. He is renowned in 
Buenos Aires and all over the world as the
“King of the Ganchos” for his ability and 
thorough understanding of the leg work in tango.
He has created and added innumerable movements to 
the tango vocabulary, and is continually
developing his innovative technique and style. 
For that reason, he is considered today the most
creative of the tango dancers.

Luiza Paes teaches a creative women’s technique 
that emphasizes the role of the follower and
her connection to the leader, exploring 
receptiveness and availability for improvisation.
Her dance ability and her knowledge of music are 
exceptional and her ability to communicate with
and motivate students is extraordinary.

As recognized masters and pioneeers of their art, 
El Pulpo & Luiza have earned an international
reputation teaching throughout Europe, the United 
States, Japan and South America.
