MATIAS
He started his artistic career by studying music and playing the guitar. In the conservatory, when he was 18 years old, he discovered tango and went to a cultural center in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Pompeya to learn it.
What started as a hobby soon became a professional career. The great passion that the dance brings and the possibility of meeting other people, combined with the social aspects of the tango culture demanded dedication, work and professionalism.
His dedication and knowledge make him a teacher and he worked until 2010 at one of the cultural centers that saw his tango beginnings.
He completed his formal education at the IUNA and was part of their ensemble from 2010 until 2013 which was directed by the prominent choreographer Leonardo Cuello. At the same time he was studying music in the Conservatory of the City. He participated in prestigious festivals (Cambalache, International Tango Festival and World Cup) and he has performed in the most distinguished theaters and milongas of the City and Province of Buenos Aires.
