Elizabeth Olivera has been dancing and teaching tango since 2000 in her hometown of Buenos Aires and around the world. She has danced in numerous shows and exhibitions in Argentina, including "Madero Tango" in Puerto Madero, "Bar Sur" in San Telmo, "Taconeando" and "La Ventana" at the famous Casa de Tango.  Elizabeth is the founding partner, artistic director and choreographer of the E.O.P. Tango Company, based in Buenos Aires. She is also the co-director and instructor of the Argentine tango school, 2 Para el Tango, at which some of the best known dancers and teachers in tango hold classes. For four years she served as an assistant teacher at the International Tango Congress (CITA) in Buenos Aires. From the many great Argentinean teachers with whom she has formally studied, Elizabeth has developed a teaching style that focuses on creating an understanding   of the aesthetics, body dynamics and discipline that support the dancing of Tango.

Mariano Gauna began his career in dance as a child, studying Argentine folk dance, modern dance, and specially tango. Since 1996, he has performed with several dance companies and danced in the most popular tango houses and shows in Buenos Aires. Mariano also has toured with several tango shows in Europe, Asia and Latin America. His tango dancing style emphasizes in a strong technique, a firm and clear embrace, elegance and sensuality, without losing the essence of the expression of the Tango.
