Mirella started dancing at a young age. Her first steps were in ballet and street dance. When she decided to become a professional dancer, she was accepted at the Albeda Danscollege in Rotterdam.<\/p>\n
During her four-year training, she developed in various dance styles, including ballet, modern, jazz, afro, and urban\/pop. After graduating in 2011, her professional dance career began. She danced in films and dinner shows, as a background dancer for various artists, and during major events.<\/p>\n
In the end, Mirella found her passion in partnering and focused entirely on the Argentine tango.<\/p>\n
Carlos & Mirella

Their motto:<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a dancer, you never stop learning.\u201d<\/p>\n
For Carlos & Mirella, professionalism means constantly developing oneself. Every year, they travel to Buenos Aires to train intensively and study with various renowned tango maestros.<\/p>\n
