Alberto Dassieu, born in 1937 in a neighborhood of Buenos Aires known for 
its Tango dancers and singers, was exposed to Tango music and some of the 
best dancers at an early age. He has been dancing since he was 14 and has 
shared the dance floor with some of Argentina's most renowned dancers. His 
inspiration has come from dancers such as Gerardo Portalea, Pepe Dafonte (El 
Pibe del Oeste), Virulazo, Copes and Miguel Angel Zotto. Alberto has a 
special affinity for D'Arienzo and Pugliese,and uses their music to teach 
musically and rhythm. Currently, Alberto is dedicated to teaching, 
performing and sharing his passion for Tango Salon and Vals to dancers from 
around the world, at home and abroad. He tours the world with his wife and 
dance partner Paulina Spinoso. In the words of Alberto, "My Tango is Salon 
style. My style of dancing is elegant, subtle, with rhythm and poetry."
