MAXIMILIANO ALVARADO & PALOMA BERRIOS
Argentine Tango Dancers:
Maximiliano Alvarado & Paloma Berrios started dancing together in 1996, touring in South America, Europe, Asia and North America, in competitions, performances, festivals, meetings, workshops, and more.
They have cultivated love for this romantic rhythm throughout the world, bringing the Argentine culture to many places and peoples, being Tango’s Cultural Ambassadors.
They developed their craft, initially adding different visions and styles from
Chilean masters, and then including the knowledge acquired from the most
important Argentinean Masters, to create their own vision: elegant, skillful and
clean, but still with delightful and essential elements, learned from old
“milongueros” with a characteristic passion and love for Tango.
Their Argentinean masters included Carlos y Rosa Pérez, Fernando Galera,
Ana María Shapira, Romina Levin, Eduardo Pareja, Graciela Gonzalez, among
others.
