Diago is an eight-time world salsa champion in the professional soloist category and is a world renown salsa instructor. His dancing is rooted in Colombian salsa, especially the speed, syncopation and rhythmic play that make Cali-style footwork so recognizable.

Their work gives dancers a mix of Colombian and Peruvian competition energy, with a focus on soloist technique, shines, musical interpretation and Salsa On1.
