Student Testimonials
“Dear Daniela,
Your tango dance class is great fun and an inspiration to my social life.
You with your partner Rommel are the personification of the elegance, grace, and sensuality of the tango. Your dancing talent is matched only by your teaching skills.
You teach the student’s heart to tango; their feet follow.
My father Fran Scanlan was a dancer/teacher/choreographer for over forty years. He tutored June Taylor and Gene Kelly among his many professional students. I have seen dance instructors. You are among the best. Thank you for sharing your gift of beauty and dance.” – Robert Scanlan, Phoenix
“I love your blog! You have a wonderful writing style, it really draws the reader in. Once I start reading I can’t stop!” – J.M, Phoenix
“I am so impressed with Daniela’s follower’s workshop. For the first time, I finally got that following is all about me being me, rather than attempting to psych out what my partner is wanting me to do… And Daniela’s use of imagery helped me overcome this belief that I need utterly focus on what my partner is up to. By using Daniela’s techniques to get into my own body, I realize my own power, relax into my power and THAT makes it fun and easy for my partner to lead me. Now I look forward to dancing tango, because I experience my confidence instead of fear.”
– Priya, Flagstaff

“I had 9 years of Argentine tango lessons and nothing made sense to me, I stayed in the Tango community only because I loved the people. Until my partner and I had private lessons with Daniela Borgialli I finally understood my part as a follower in this gorgeous, dramatic and passionate dance. BRAVO Daniela! Now I can say Viva El Tango!”
– Josie, Chandler
“I have taken many classes from Daniela and loved each and every one of them, she never gave up on me (even though I have two left feet)… she was always an inspiration… I especially loved the class where we delved into the music itself… Daniela has a gift and a passion to share Tango from the Soul…”

“Having had the benefit of Daniela’s teaching and the privilege of dancing with many of Daniela’s students- I would like to encourage everyone to try a class or private lesson with her. She is talented and knowledgeable, warm and engaging, and her students are perfect examples of her teaching skills. In 6 years of tango I have taken lessons from many teachers- Daniela is in my top favorites of my list.”

“Daniela knows how people learn and, more specifically, how people learn to dance. Her gentleness and joy make her a great listener, observer and motivator. Her amazing combination of knowledge and heart makes me more comfortable with my body and with learning new ways of moving.”
– Suzy, Flagstaff
“There is no way to tone down my exuberance or enthusiasm that I have for Daniela as a person and a professional dance instructor. She is awesome. Fortunately for me, I began my Argentine Tango dance experience with Daniela and if I could, I would have everyone begin this dancing experience with her. She holds a Masters in dance and continues to perfect her dancing skills and innovative dancing methods. She is a perfectionist to the point you will learn and enjoy and be able to execute and experience the joy of dance. I enourage everyone to experience Daniela.”
