Please Note: Milonga takes the place of the Argentine Tango Followers’ Technique class on the 3rd Wednesday of the month.
Maxi Copello was born into a tango family, immersed in the rhythms and passion of the dance from an early age. As a child, he often accompanied his father to the theater, watching in awe from the light booth, captivated by every performance. Eventually, whether through curiosity or inheritance, tango became his greatest passion. Over the years, he has directed and acted in tango films and traveled the world as a teacher and performer.
Karu Sanchez brings her own unique depth to tango, with a background rich in movement, expression, and sensitivity to the dance. Her artistry and connection make her a compelling presence on and off the stage.
In 2023, destiny brought Maxi and Karu together. From their very first dance, they described the experience as flying — the world around them disappeared, and in a single embrace, they felt an instant bond. That moment revealed not only a dream partnership in tango, but also a shared path in life.
Since then, Maxi and Karu have danced together across Europe, performing in countries such as Denmark, Spain, the Netherlands, and Belgium. They also competed together in the Tango World Championship for the first time, proudly reaching the finals. Now, they are beginning a new adventure in the United States, continuing their journey as dance partners and life companions.
For Maxi and Karu, sharing their love of tango — and the subtlety of a true embrace — is a dream come true.
