Born in Mar del Plata, Argentina, Luis Bianchi started dancing tango 
in 1994. In Buenos Aires, he taught at several milongas, including 
Salon Canning, La Catedral and La Divina, and performed with 
Bajofondo Tango Club, Tanghetto and at the tango house "Portena Mia." 
His tango work also took him to Brazil, North America and Europe. He 
has studied with many tango masters, including Geraldine Rojas and 
Javier Rodriguez, Osvaldo and Miguel Zotto, Chico Frumboli and 
Eugenia Parilla, Pablo Villaraza and Dana Frigoli.

Born in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Daniela Pucci (Stanford Ph.D. 2002) 
started dancing tango in 1999. She brings to the partnership over 20 
years of classical piano and a background in science, which adds an 
analytical dimension to their teaching. She has studied with Valencia 
Batiuk, Melina Brufman and Mariela Franganillo.

Daniela and Luis' tango is best described as joyful and heartfelt. It 
was once said that, when they dance, sky and earth meet in the heart. 
Technically, their dance is characterized by fluid dynamics and blend 
of traditional and nuevo tango within the embrace. As instructors, 
they emphasize body awareness, improvisation and musicality; their 
goal is to help students communicate with each other with ease and 
creativity. Their partnership began in July 2006 with the show "Tango 
Historias," in Poland,. They have taught and performed in festivals 
such as Valentango (Portland, OR), Tango de los Muertos (Boston), NYC 
Tango Marathon and D.C. Tango Exchange, and in cities such as 
Philadelphia, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Warsaw and 
Krakow.
