• from Budapest, HUNGARY
• are the Canyengue teachers in Budapest.
• Zsófi and András have been dancing together for 13 years, although dance has been present in both of their lives for more than 35 years. Zsófi came to tango from the world of ballet, tap and contemporary dances through ballroom dancing, in which music was her first particularly exciting experience, as she encountered tango music before the dance itself. András has also spent many years with ballroom dancing and Hungarian folk dance, when – between 1997 and 2000 – he visited Buenos Aires several times, where he got to know tango and founded the first milonga in Budapest with his dance partner at the time, Götz Andrea. In addition to dancing, András plays bass and sings in the Pesti Tangó Zenekar. Together they currently teach tango in Budakeszi on a weekly basis.
