The Culture of Popular Dance

South America Unites Us: Flavia, from São Paulo, Brazil, and Hernán, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, were born in places where the culture of popular dance permeates the streets, the air, and the atmosphere of the city. This is how our paths crossed, leading us to this great connection that is reflected in our way of dancing and teaching tango.

​

Hernán Alvarez Prieto, a passionate milonguero and DJ, has made a significant imprint in the world of tango. He began his career in 1996, inspired by the great masters of the past such as Gerardo Portalea, Puppy Castello, and Turco José Brahemcha. He made a name for himself as a DJ in renowned milongas as early as 1999, including iconic venues such as Confitería Ideal, La Milonguita, Salón Canning, El Beso, among others.

​

Over the years, Hernán has continued his quest for improvement and learning, collaborating with famous milonguero maestros such as Jorge Dispari and María del Carmen, Carlos and Rosa Pérez, Eduardo Pareja, Raúl Bravo, Nito and Elba García, among others. His skill and passion for tango have led him to accompany renowned milongueras and participate in demonstrations with renowned figures such as Natalia Hills, Stella Missé, and Inés Muzzopappa.

​

In addition to his remarkable work as a DJ and dancer, Hernán has left his mark on numerous international tango festivals in cities such as Seoul, Chicago, Brussels, Antwerp, and Buenos Aires, including the Buenos Aires Tango Festival and Championship several times. His experience and expertise led him to be part of the jury of the Tango BA 2023 Festival and Championship, where he was honored for his career with a special mention from the Buenos Aires City Legislature.

Hernán Alvarez Prieto's journey as a dancer, teacher, and DJ reflects his deep commitment and contribution to the world of tango, establishing himself as a respected and admired figure within the tango community, both nationally and internationally.

​

Flávia Morari discovered her passion for dance in São Paulo, where she was introduced to different styles from a young age. However, it was during her adolescence that she discovered tango, and her true passion took root. Fascinated by the emotional expression and deep connection of tango, she continued her journey to Buenos Aires, where she lived and danced for several years, exploring traditional milongas and dance clubs in the Argentine capital.

​

Flávia Morari trained in tango with Geraldine Rojas, Moira Castellano, Manuela Rossi, among others. She also participated in tango companies in Europe such as Tango ART and Romeo & Juliette. After enriching her experience in South America and Europe, Flavia co-founded Tango Factory in Brussels, a space dedicated to learning and promoting Argentine tango culture.

​

Today, united by our shared love for tango, we are preparing to embark on a tour through Belgium, France, and the Netherlands, aspiring to transmit not only the steps and techniques of tango but also the spirit and soul of this iconic dance.
