Kim Benitez first discovered Argentine tango in London over 10 years ago. Her passion for tango was such that she left her job in the City of London to live in Buenos Aires for four years. There, she immersed herself in the world of tango, studying with the world’s most renowned maestros and dancing in milongas till the early hours of the morning. Her journey of exploration has given her the deepest respect for and an understanding of the culture and traditions which surround the tango, which is evident in both her dancing and her teaching. 
David & Kim Benitez are a dynamic, young couple who met in Buenos Aires and set up their tango company, Tango Movement, in London in June 2007.
Since then, they have rapidly become recognised as one of the UK’s leading professionals, much requested for their performances and classes around the UK.
They have performed for Lord Norman Foster, the Argentine Embassy and Sadler's Wells, and are regular performers at the historical Waldorf Tango Teas. For 2 years running, they have been invited to perform at the River Tango Festival, the UK’s largest open-air tango festival.
Their love of tango and for teaching is evident in every class that they give. They are unique in their focus on technique – from both the lady’s and the man’s perspective – and for the individual attention they offer to each and every one of their students.
They dance with elegance, precision and a natural chemistry. Their performances are a living demonstration of their passion for dance and for each other.
Argentinian born David Benitez moved to Buenos Aires at a young age to study dance. He graduated from Buenos Aires’ number 1 school of ballet and contemporary dance, El Taller de San Martin, whereupon he began working in internationally renowned companies such as the Contemporary San Martin Ballet and Maximiliano Guerra’s Mercosur Ballet.
He had his first taste of tango when he performed with tango diva Mora Godoy. After intensive training, he was touring with tango companies such as Tanguera, Ana Maria Steckelman’s Tangokinesis and Miguel Angel Zotto’s world-famous Tango Por Dos Company. He was also privileged to be Osvaldo Zotto’s teaching assistant.
David is now based in London with his partner, Kim Schwartz, teaching and performing with their company, Tango Movement.
Her most important influences include Lorena Ermocida and Osvaldo Zotto, Damian Esell and Nancy Louzan, Eliana Sanchez and Martin Ojeda, Alejandra Martinan and Gabriel Misse and Andrea Misse.
She has performed in Buenos Aires tango shows such as La Cumparsita, Chiquilin Tango and Tango Real (in the Mansion Dandi). She has taught in the famous Confiteria Ideal and the Mansion Dandi Royal.
