ALONSO AND NOELIA

Alonso and Noelia first met in 2016 at a dance school in Cádiz, but their journey as a dance couple truly began in 2017. Initially, they danced with different partners in various categories, but something special brought them together, leading to their first big performance in March 2017. Since then, they have been inseparable on their dance journey.

Their dedication to dance saw them moving from Cádiz to Madrid to pursue more training and new experiences. They adopted a simple yet effective learning method: try new things, learn from mistakes, correct them, and practice diligently. This approach has been instrumental in achieving their dance goals.

Currently residing in Barcelona, Alonso and Noelia teach dance classes regularly and travel globally on weekends to share their unique dance style. Their story, from Cádiz to Madrid and now Barcelona, is a testament to growth, learning, and spreading the joy of dance.
