Martin is a dedicated dance practitioner and performer in both tango and contemporary disciplines. His focus and approach have been influenced by his previous experience as a high profile athlete and coach on the world stage. This experience developed an acutely analytical awareness which he brings into his dance work. He is a creative independent thinker who dedicate his time exploring ways of enhancing our relation with movement through dance.
From a very early age, and due to the lack of insightful technical approach, he began his own training methods, which led him to the top of his field, at that time track and field, sprinting events, representing Argentina in international competitions several times. Having acted as a consultant in the Argentinian National Sport Centre
helping Olympic and world stage athletes is among his most worthy experience in this field.
Martin was awarded a degree in Physical Education, with contemporary dance as a chosen subject, at Jorge Coll, Mendoza, Argentina.
Martin has studied both classic and new style tango intensively for the past 15 years.
He further developed his contemporary dance skills through the Viviana Lasparra’s school in Argentina and is currently under mentorship, training with Jean Newlove, Laban's Personal Assistant for a number of years. Additional influences have been through observing the work process at attending classes and workshops with Richard Alston, Fernanda Pratta, Hofesh Schetcher and Fred Geridh, among others.Having researched for many years sphere dinamics, he also incorporates this fundamental element to his ground-breaking take on movement and dance.
Further choreographic and performance work includes 2006-2015
Martin has invested in research and development time with a number of dancers from differing disciplines, notably Julian Elizari who performed in Freiburgh Germany for Joachian Schlolemer, Svenia Hamel, contemporary dancer, Germany, Kate Parry, (England) aerial and circus artist, Miriam Faura director of Race and Rythm.
He danced for choreographers Jose Agudo and Claire Cunningham in A Performance Project at The Place, London.
for Dance United in residency at Kensington and Chelsea College. Previous projects include Blaggers, in 2006, a piece devised with youths for the Theatre Royal Stratford East and Phakama, a company working with immigrant youths in London for the Contact Festival Manchester. In 2006, he choreographed and danced the tango element of The Big Dance at Trafalgar Square. This was the televised by the BBC in a record breaking performance for the most diverse gathering of dance genre in one location, following the Drama Centre production, in London, where he assisted Philip Hedley, Director on a production of Moliere’s The Miser. In 2007 Martin was movement assistant to a Shakespeare’s production of “Midsummer nights dream” performed at the London Metropolitan University prior to being taken to Poland.
With Ani Tchakmakdjian, Director of Elbow Room Dance Company, he has begun exploring fusing these two disciplines. The material generated is attracting attention, pushing the boundaries of traditional tango whilst producing a wealth of material to pursue from a dance theatre perspective. They performed this piece at Dance live 2008, Scotland and showed more work in progress in residencies at Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen.
Performs with Maria Solero, at Jasper Conran's private event a fusion piece of tango and contemporary dance to a world premiere piano composition by Juan Rezzuto and Argentinian musician.
