Diego Blanco & Ana Padrón

Award-winning Argentine Tango dancers Diego Blanco and Ana Padrón are one of the top performing young couples in the world today. Their tango style is energetic, rhythmical, and innovative, and through their fluid moves they fuse nuevo tango with the close embrace look of traditional tango. They co- founded their dance company, Tango for All, to bring this electrifying tango to audiences in America and throughout the world.

Diego and Ana command a wide range of dance disciplines from which they tap inspiration for their movement. In addition to Argentine Tango, these include Classical Ballet, Jazz, African, and Jose Limon, Martha Graham, and Jennifer Muller techniques. They have honed these techniques and skills since their paths first crossed at the New World School of the Arts in Miami, Florida, culminating in Bachelor in Fine Arts degrees from the University of Florida, from which they both graduated with Honors.

Diego and Ana have radiated their love of tango and brought audiences to their feet in applause over many years in many nations: they have toured throughout the United States, the Caribbean, South America, Europe and Asia. They have worked with fellow tango stars such as the dancers Diego Di Falco and Carolina Zokalski, and the Grammy winner musician Raul Jaurena. They have also brought tango to numerous off-Broadway shows and danced and choreographed for an independent film. Outside of the tango realm they have choreographed and danced for legendary modern dance companies that include Jennifer Muller and Martha Graham.
