ABOUT JUAN

Born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Juan Matos moved to New York in 1996 where he was first introduced to Mambo. Juan's impressive street style of Mambo got him noticed by some of the more experienced dancers of his day in the clubs of New York. In 1999, Juan Matos joined a group called the “Magic Combination Dancers,” an opportunity that would soon lead to an invitation to train with the renowned “Santo Rico Dance Company”—a group founded by Wilton Beltre and directed by Thomas Guerrero. Juan started his own dance company Fogarate, originally made up of some of the hottest dancers in New York. Now based in Milan, Italy Juan is one of the most popular dancers on the world salsa scene.
