Patricia: At the age of 10, my mother enrolled me in modern jazz and ballet classes, hoping it would help improve my slightly rounded posture. From that moment on, dance never left my life, and I’ve had the chance to explore different styles over the years.
At 20, I discovered salsa… and fell in love with my dance teacher, who would become my partner for six years. Together, we taught classes in a small neighborhood association in the suburbs of Paris. Naturally athletic, I quickly decided to make it my profession.
In 2004, I earned my diploma as a sports instructor. Still driven by my passion for dance, I then joined the Salsabor school, a renowned salsa institution in Paris.
In 2008, I obtained my diploma as a teacher and professional dancer in Latin and Afro-Caribbean dances. It was also around that time that I discovered Pilates, which became, for me, the best complementary training for dancers.
Today, I don’t consider dance as a job, but above all as a passion I want to share and pass on — always with joy and pleasure.
Eduardo: A computer engineer of Italian-Argentinian origin, I’ve been passionate about Rueda de Casino for over 20 years. I’ve had the privilege of being trained by several great instructors, including Orlando Alfonso from Cuba Baila. I’ve also taken part in many international Rueda congresses.
In love with this joyful and dynamic group dance, I am one of the founders of The Rueda Project, a community group created in 2011 whose mission is to spread and develop Rueda de Casino in a fun way all around the world. I’m part of the Rueda Alliance and actively promote the Rueda Standard, a universal system of calls and moves that allows all rueda dancers across the globe to dance together, no matter their city or school.
I’ll be alongside Patricia for this session to share and bring this passion to life with you — come join us, laugh, and enjoy the unique and contagious energy of Rueda de Casino!
