About the studio

Il Mosaico Danza is one of Milan's most established multi-style dance schools, founded and directed by Sabina Todaro. The school operates from three main venues: its headquarters at Via Pomezia 12 in the Loreto district (MM1/MM2 Loreto), a second studio at Via Passeroni 6 in Porta Romana (MM3), and a Tibaldi-area studio inside Fennec Danza on Via Pomponazzi 1. Latin courses focus on Salsa (Cuban, Puerto Rican and Los Angeles styles plus Rueda de Casino) and Bachata, including a popular Bachata Fusion stream, with mini-courses for Merengue, Cha Cha Cha, Mambo, Samba, Lambada and Kizomba available on request. Group classes for adults run Monday to Friday evenings between 20:00 and 23:00 at the Loreto venue, taught by Arianna Biancotto, Gio Juan and Leonardo Ybarra. The school welcomes complete beginners and does not require a partner, offering trial lessons by appointment via WhatsApp or email. Beyond Latin styles the centre also teaches flamenco, swing (Lindy Hop, Balboa, Collegiate Shag), tango argentino, hip hop, K-pop, danza classica and modern dance, plus extensive children's and teen programmes. Lessons are delivered in Italian, English and Spanish, and the school is run as a non-profit association (a.s.d.) with mandatory membership, insurance and medical certificate.

Il Mosaico Danza a.s.d. is a non-profit cultural and sports association (associazione sportiva dilettantistica) based in Milan, founded and directed by artistic director Sabina Todaro. Its legal seat is at Via Correggio 22 (CF 97624160152) and the operational headquarters are at Via Pomezia 12 in the Loreto district. The school positions itself as a 'mosaic' of dance traditions, deliberately bringing together Latin, swing, flamenco, urban, classical and folk styles under one roof, with an inclusive, non-competitive teaching philosophy. The school year runs from September 2025 to 29 June 2026, with summer courses in July, and culminates in end-of-year showcases including a flamenco theatre show with live musicians.
