Anamaria Menendez born and raised in Buenos Aires began learning Argentinean Folklore dancing as a child. After moving to Los Angeles she continued mastering this dance form, and performed in numerous shows and exhibition with a Folklore Argentino Dancing Co. Her love for this genre of dance has currently brought her to teach the Chacarera at the Tango Room in Sherman Oaks, CA.
