The Filipeli were subjugated by the tango from boys, Nicholas when he was born an attraction that arrabalero dance, years later, would allow him to stand under the lights of the most prestigious venues in the world.

"We worktogether for fifteen years and even longer ago we started dancing in Caminito. Then each went their way, but we love to dance together in public happens very cute when we do ", recognize.

Today they are "prophets in the land", but before they succeeded in other. life two years ago found them in a mega tour of Japan, the country for three months kept under an atmosphere bewitched them became hard to believe, and doing what you do best: dance.

They traveled 28 cities of China, They danced for the Argentina embassy in Japan and even gave classes.

They have a special magic, something like a burst that mixes art with fun for all who see them dancing.

And beyond the bond between them and grew stronger over the years, both also did their thing separately. Nicolas Almagro now lives in, in a neighborhood with history tanguera.

The atmosphere of tango is still conservative, but they say that there is any prejudice when they leave the stage, something that also show what they achieve on the dancefloor.

"It's fantastic. From the peoplereceived much love, from places to places very traditionalqueerand open. I think that being brothers and twins already have a plus ", says Nicholas.

As in the World, the curtain is drawn aside and appear: identical, as compadritos 1920, with tailor made work perfectly for them, as if they were double role playing his opponent.
