Ivan is from Mendoza, Argentina, where he started his artistic career as a soloist at 12 years of age. He was trained by his parents Eduardo Terrazas and Beatriz Herrera in competition Malambo and other forms of Argentine Folklore, as well as classical ballet and Argentine Tango.
Sara is from Zagreb, Croatia. Since very young she lived in Los Angeles, London, Paris where she studied classical ballet, flamenco, argentine folklore and tango. Her obsession with Argentine Tango started in the late 1990s at the milongas.
Ivan and Sara met in New York City and have dedicated themselves with passion and intensity to Argentine Tango. Trained primarily by Diego DiFalco, Pablo Pugliese and Natalia Hills, and also drawing from many other influences, such as Jorge Torres, Roberto Herrera, Guillermina Quiroga, Gabriel Misse, Carlitos Perez and Raul Bravo, together they are among the youngest and most recognized teachers and performers in the world of Argentine Tango.
As instructors, they have developed a modern systemic approach to teaching traditional tango, based on strong fundamentals technique, analytical thinking of structures, naturalness and comfort in both close and open embrace. Ivan and Sara encourage students to look for connection, quality of movement, creative expression and musicality.

After living for 7 years in United States and Argentina, Ivan and Sara are currently based in Europe, and in addition to being members of the prestigious company ‘Tangueros del Sur’ directed by Natalia Hills, they have recently performed with ‘Tangox2’ and ‘Miguel Zotto in Concert’ directed by Miguel Angel Zotto, ‘Obsesion Tango’ directed by Tamara Bisceglia, and ‘Compania Roberto Herrera’ directed by Roberto Herrera. Ivan and Sara have appeared, among others, in the shows Romper el Piso (Israel Dance Festival; Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival; Vail International Dance Festival; New York City Center), Obsesion Tango at the Borges Cultural Center, Connectango, Roberto Herrera’s tango company at La Estancia, the Rhythm and Passion Show, and Borges and Piazzola Tango, and with the following: the Vermont Symphony Orchestra, the Romulo Larrea Tango Orchestra, the Washington Pan-American Symphony Orchestra, the Eternal Tango Quartet, and Avantango.

Ivan è di Mendoza, Argentina, dove ha cominciato la sua carriera artistica all'età di 12 anni, sotto la guida dei suoi genitori Eduardo Terrazas e Beatriz Herrera, ballando Malambo e altre danze folcloriche, balletto classico e tango.
Sara è di Zagabria, Croazia e da quando era giovanissima ha vissuto a Los Angeles, Parigi, Londra, dove ha studiato danza folclorica argentina, balletto classico, flamenco e tango. La sua "ossessione" per il tango argentino comincia alla fine degli anni 90 in milonga e da allora balla e studia tango e folclore argentino.
Ivan e Sara s'incontrano a New York e si dedicano con intensa passione al Tango Argentino durante sette anni passati in Argentina e a New York accumulando gli insegnamenti e l'infuenza dei maestri Diego DiFalco, Pablo Pugliese and Natalia Hills, Jorge Torres, Roberto Herrera, Guillermina Quiroga, Gabriel Misse, Carlitos Perez e Raul Bravo. Ora sono tra i più giovani e più apprezzati insegnanti e ballerini nel mondo del tango argentino.
Come insegnanti hanno sviluppato un sistema moderno di approccio al tango, basato sull'approfondita tecnica dei fondamentali, analisi logica delle strutture, naturalezza e comodita dell'abbraccio e della postura, sia nell'abbraccio aperto che in quello chiuso. Insegnano inoltre a ricercare la connessione, la qualità del movimento, espressione creativa e la musicalità.

Dopo 7 anni in Argentina e a New York, Ivan e Sara risiedono attualmente in Europa, membri della prestigiosa compagnia "Tangueros del Sur" di Natalia Hills. Recentemente si sono esibiti con ‘Tangox2’, ‘Miguel Zotto in Concert’, ‘Obsesion Tango’ diretto da Tamara Bisceglia, ‘Compania Roberto Herrera’.

Si sono inoltre esibiti con la Vermont Symphony Orchestra, la Romulo Larrea Tango Orchestra, la Washington Pan-American Symphony Orchestra, la Eternal Tango Quartet e con Avantango.
