go "Gato" Valdéz & Andrea Monti

CV. Coupleonti

Gato and Andrea started dancing together in 1998. They dance "Tango Salón" with refinement and distinction.Together they have formed a well-known reputation not only for their elegance, technique and musicality, but also for their “caminar a tierra” which has made them become real representatives of the typical tango “porteño”.

As teachers they have developed through many years of experience and work, a teaching method based on the technique of posture, balance, axes, weight changes, rhythm and especially on the tango walk, making emphasis on the interpretation of the music, and on the expression of feelings when dancing.

They have worked and participated in several international events and tango festivals, made numerous Tango Tours both nationally and internationally, as well as an infinite number of performances and presentations in famous show clubs, restaurants, tango bars, and milongas "porteñas" in Buenos Aires and in other important cities worldwide, such as Rio de Janeiro and Salvador (Brazil); San Jose (Costa Rica); Cape Town (Africa); Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia); Singapore (Singapore); Bali (Indonesia); Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane (Australia); Auckland and Wellington (New Zealand); London, Brighton, Southampton and Newcastle (England); Stockholm and Gothenburg (Sweden); Copenhagen (Denmark); Stavanger and Oslo (Norway); Amsterdam (Holland); Barcelona, Madrid, Sitges and Valencia (Spain); San Francisco, Oakland, Palo Alto, San Diego, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Modesto, Sacramento, Portland, Boston, Chicago, Phoenix, Tucson, Prescott, Flagstaff , Miami, Sarasota and Tampa (USA).
