He won the first "Hugo del Carril" championship of Tango in Buenos Aires in 1992 and that same year also the championship "El Milonguero porteño” in Buenos Aires". Many of their students are today great dancers and teachers.
Argentine Tango appears in Pablo's life when he was a child as his grandparents were tango dancers so coming into contact very early. Over the years, tango has got more and more into his life. At the age of 20 he went to study Argentine tango and Argentine Folk in the "Escuela Municipal de Danzas Jose Neglia de Morón" Afterwards he took lessons with different milongueros, such us: Rodolfo y Maria Cieri and the great dancer Pepito Avellaneda. Pablo was Pepito's assistant for some years, and later, when Pepito died, he assisted pepito’s partner (Suzuky Avellaneda) in her lessons. In this moment, he filmed with her the famous video "30 advanced steps to dance milonga" that can be bought by internet nowadays.

Florencia...
She was born in the city of Mar del Plata, Argentina. Like many Argentinians, she grew up listening to Tango and watching her grandparents dance. At the age of 20 she went to study in Buenos Aires and there she changed clubs for milongas, she learned to dance with old milongueros and milongueras who reminded her of her grandparents and marked her with a philosophy of life that she knew how to embrace; she sought to progress and took classes with teachers Raúl Bravo and Cacho Dinzel.
She worked in popular tango houses such as “La cumparcita” on the corner of Chile and Balcarce, “Bar sur” also in San Telmo, “Restaurante Sur” in Barracas and performed exhibitions in different halls and Milongas of Buenos Aires together with renowned orchestras and singers such as Alberto Podestá, Alberto Morán, Oscar Ferrari, Alfredo Belusi, Juan Carlos Godoy and Jorge Valdéz among others.
She was also invited to take part in tango shows in various events organised by the Casa Rosada, in the presence of the then president of the Argentine Nation, Carlos Saul Menem. Around those years, the '90s, she also graduated from the Ernesto de la Cárcova Higher School of Fine Arts. During the next 20 years she decided to dedicate her self professionally to the activity as a plastic artist, and the upbringing of 2 children, but she never stopped frequenting the milongas in the city.
For 6 years she resumed her professional activity with tango together with partner Pablo Nievas, renowned dancer and teacher with great experience, who has trained her in the practice and teaching of his technique and together they travel all over the world and have founded in the neighbourhood of Caballito, in Buenos Aires, the Tango Frenesí Porteño school and residence, dedicated to teaching Tango dance, organising practices and receiving tango dancers from all over the world.
