Oscar Casas is an experienced teacher, and a well-known figure in the milongas of Buenos Aires. He is very milonguero, and respected by the "old guard" in the milongas of BA. He grew up in the tango barrio Parque Patricios, Buenos Aires, living and breathing tango. His parents were avid tango dancers and, in the 1950's and 1960's, they organized three different milongas per week, which regularly drew in 400-500 dancers.

Oscar teaches with energy and humor, emphasizing concepts, specializing in improvisation always interpreting the music and respecting the character of the different orchestras. He is especially interested in the dynamics and cadencia of the dance. Everything he teaches is applicable to crowded milongas.

Ana Miguel started her Argentine Tango training in the dance school of Moron Jose Neglia. She started teaching with the famous Argentine tango instructor and performer, Pocho Pizarro. From 2005 to 2008, Ana Miguel performed in the Show “Bacanazo” which was held in the Empire Theatre and the Roman Theatre in BA and she also performed as part of the show at Esquina Carlos Cardel from 2006 to 2010 in BA. Ana has taught tango at various tango festivals and was also a tango teacher at ACETA (Academia de Estilos de Tango Argentino – Academy of Argentine Tango Styles) from 2006 to 2010.
