Alexandra Wood<\/strong>
\nAlexandra has been teaching tango for 15 years, she trained in classical ballet and later contemporary dance, she worked professionally as a contemporary dancer. She trained in dance and other performing arts for 6 years, in the latter three she studied and gained BA hons degree in Dance. She continues to train and study all forms but her passions for Argentine Tango formed her career.<\/p>\nHer tango training took place mainly in Buenos Aires. She had the privilege of performing in many milongas in Buenos Aires. She studied with many masters including Miguel Angel Zotto (with whom she had the honour of teaching) Osvaldo Zotto, Los Dispari, and the incredible Misse family especially Andrea Misse as well as along with many other teachers.<\/p>\n
Alexandra co-created the first Argentine tango school in London, Tango in Action in 2002.<\/p>\n
She now runs \u2018Alexandra Wood Tango school\u2019 in London and enjoys travelling to teach and perform internationally.<\/p>\n

Hern\u00e1n Brusa<\/strong><\/p>\nHern\u00e1n Brusa was born in Buenos Aires, the heart of Tango. He discovered this wonderful rhythm thanks to his grandfather, who had been a \u2018milonguero\u2019 during the golden age and always listened to Carlos Di Sarli and An\u00edbal Troilo in his house. When he lost his dear grandfather in 1996, Hern\u00e1n\u2019s curiosity took him to a tango lesson with his sister- \u00a0they started a weekly course with a disciple of the famous tango couple \u2018los Dinzel\u2019. But he only discovered his passion when he first set foot in a milonga in 1997. Since then, his feet have not left the dance floor anymore.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He studied with many famous tango masters- \u00a0with Alejandra Manti\u00f1\u00e1n, and Gabriel Angi\u00f3 & Natalia Games being the ones who shaped his style. He has been teaching since 2002 in various cities in Argentina, America, Europe and Asia. From 2003 to 2008, he dedicated himself to stage tango, performing every evening in the shows of Buenos Aires.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In 2009, he lived in Tokyo to work in a Tango school there. In 2010 he decided to take a break from tango as a career. Returning from Japan, he felt that something in his tango was not the way he wanted it and that his dance had not matured enough. He took on a “normal” job, continued to take private classes with his masters just for pleasure, and danced in the milongas almost every night until dawn for 4 years. Until he found his style. In September 2014 he went to live in Europe, where he returned to tango as a profession, dedicating himself mainly to teaching Tango Sal\u00f3n. He has brought Argentine tango to Italy, the UK, Belgium, Spain, Denmark, Israel, Turkey, Portugal and Switzerland, transmitting the style of the Buenos Aires milongas and the passion that has been in his blood for 2 generations.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Tango for Hernan is not just a profession, it is a way of living, a way of expressing himself by embracing someone and breathing together, of getting lost on the dance floor to the rhythm of an orchestra whilst time stops. In tango he has discovered a fabulous way to be happy.<\/p>\n
