Gustavo's passion is in Latin Dance. He started his dance education with a group called Grupo del Sur. Gustavo's dedication to the art form had him dancing in a professional dance group after only 2 years. During his time dancing in Argentina, Gustavo performed for numerous nationally recognized artists. It wasn't long before Gustavo decided to open his own dance studio in Argentina. His studio was an immediate success and the talk of the town for 2 years. Gustavo was then presented with the opportunity to travel to Las Vegas and compete in the World Salsa Championship which aired on ESPN. Gustavo wanted to continue his experience in dance around the world and traveled to Mexico where he was offered work as a dance performer. Gustavo was then offered work with the internationally recognized dance company Nuevo Milenio where he worked as a dancer and choreographer for 6 years. Gustavo then moved to the united states in January of 2013 where his vision is not only to teach, but to spread his passion and joy for the art of Latin dance.
