A couple on stage and in life since 2007, Suhana and Castano are dedicated to the culture and dance technique of classical oriental dance in all its musical, historical and stylistic diversity - from classical to modern.
Both as artists on stage and as instructors in workshops and school programs, they present the high art and culture of Oriental dance with great humor and inventiveness.
In their stage programs we find the whole palette of danced fairytale-like storytelling, sometimes humorous, sometimes gracefully enchanting and then again with passionate temperament, so that the audience is taken into the secret of this more than 7000 year old form of movement and feels it in the heart and in the legs: the joy of life of Oriental Dance.
