Farid started dancing salsa in 2001. He discovered Mambo style in 2002 in the Paris Salsa congress and was influenced by the Vasquez style. One year later he presented his first show named “The X-MEN” during the same congress and had a large success.

Since then he performed in many countries such as England , Ireland, Italy, New York and Los Angeles. His shows are very original, with crazy costumes and mixing salsa with different dances.

Farid is also a musician (singing and playing percussion), his style is a mix of speed, seduction, humour and crazyness.... He likes the crowd and the stage which you will no doubt notice.

Barbara Cano started dancing salsa 12 years ago. She's from Sevilla and has Puertorican roots. She's teaching all over the world her unique lady salsa style with Flamenco which has an incredible success.
