Georgina Vargas
Georgina Vargas, milonguera, tango dancer and singer, born in Montevideo, Uruguay, grew up between the two banks of the Rios de la Plata. She began her studies as a classical and contemporary dancer then, as a teenager, she was introduced to Tango in the milongas of Buenos Aires nights. From 1999 to 2005, she lived and taught in the city of Rome, Italy, where she founded her tango school, under the sponsorship of the embassies of the Argentine Republic and the Eastern Republic of Uruguay; She developed her activity as a dancer and teacher in Europe and Japan. In 2006, she recorded in Buenos Aires her first CD “Por Esos Tango” composed of a repertoire characteristic of very traditionalist tango, evoking the style of the famous Uruguayan singer Nina Miranda. In 2014, she recorded her first album of Tangos, Waltzes and Milongas, for which she composed the lyrics and music herself, on the theme of love, “Mensajes de amor para bailar”. Then in 2015, she recorded her third disc “Inolvidables” with well-known songs from the tango repertoire. In the city of Buenos Aires, he could be heard on the stages of several Buenos Aires theaters, several milongas as well as Tango theaters such as “Con Sabor a Tango”. She developed her singing talent alongside her dancing talent, managing to combine both things in the same show.
Her passion as a stage dancer and tango singer goes hand in hand with her strong vocation for teaching. Throughout her career, she has developed very detailed technical work for women, with which every woman can show, easily through her stiletto heels, all of her femininity.

Tango brings them together, on a magical night like so many nights in the city of Buenos Aires, on the dance floor of the “Nino Bien” milonga. Since then, their deep feelings and their style full of poetry have accompanied them throughout the world they travel together.
Their rapid fusion as dance partners of a well-defined style allowed them to expand their talents as dancers, teachers and choreographers.
Lovers of Tango, in its purity and deep essence, they seek to transmit it through their dance, their teaching and their artistic generosity.
Endowed with great sensitivity, this magnetic couple awakens a bouquet of emotions. Today they are recognized as one of the best tango couples internationally, as evidenced by their numerous tours in different cities in the United States, Italy and Japan or their participation, as a special guest at the best tango show in Buenos Aires. “Esquina Carlos Gardel”.
From 2017 to 2020, a new great and successful experience led them to open a Dinner Show restaurant in the town of Posadas, Misiones, where they offer tango shows and live music shows.
After the city of Alicante, in Spain, they are now in Paris where they give courses and from where they travel to host seminars and/or shows.
