I'm a former professional ballet dancer with the Basel Ballet of Switzerland. I worked closely and performed with leading dance figures such as Heinz Spoerli, Maurice Bejart, and Nacho Duato. In USA, I briefly danced with the American Ballroom Theater and taught ballroom and Latin dance at Fred Astaire Dance Studios in NYC. For the last eight years, I have been dancing Argentine tango in NYC and have had the pleasure of performing and teaching with leading Argentine tango and performance artist, German Salvatierra. I currently freelance as a ballet coach/instructor, tango and ballroom dancer.

Bejart's La Cumparsita - Is this really a Tango?Argentine tango has changed remarkably little since it emerged as a distinct musical genre and dance form at the end of the 19th century.
