We are privileged to welcome Paloma and Maxi back to Ottawa for the first time since 2018!
Paloma Berrios and Maximiliano Alvarado, from Santiago, Chile, have danced together for over 25 years. Now based in Miami, Florida, they have been toured through South America, North America, and Europe, teaching and performing in the most renowned Tango Festivals.
Their last visit was VERY short and we look forward to spending a lot more time learning with them! Paloma and Maxi are excited to offer a comprehensive learning experience that will meet you wherever you are in your tango journey. They will also be available for private lessons throughout their stay.
This will be their only engagement in Canada, so we look forward to greeting our tango friends from throughout the region!
