Julio Saavedra & Letitia Simone Wilkinson

Julio Saavedra is one of a new generation of outstanding tango dancers. Professional tango dancer, teacher and coach, Julio trained from a young age in Tango and Folklore, participating in major festivals within Argentina and continuing his development with emblematic tango teachers such as Graciela González, Carlos Borquez, los Veliz, among others. 
Julio went on to performance and teach in Buenos Aires - in the tango houses and Salon studios and milongas where he developed a ductile and complementary dynamism between traditional tango and today's tango.  With this depth of experience, over the last 7 years he has taught and performed worldwide in more than 30 countries.

In 2019 she was awarded Arts Council England funding for her Tango project in Buenos Aires and is currently teaching regular Tango classes in London alongside her Online Yoga & Fitness platform- Dynamic Body®. Letitia’s in-depth experience and knowledge in multiple dance disciplines, performance and Yoga, has enabled her to approach Tango with a deep sensitivity to the body and it’s mechanics. She possesses a keen eye for detail, helping her students search for quality, comfort, control and ease in their dance. ​
