El Tiguere Del Mambo aka DJ Tiguere was born in Rochester, NY to a Dominican father and Puerto Rican mother. El Tiguere’s father being a self taught musician imparted a feel and love for music that would permeate all that El Tiguere does. Some of El Tiguere’s earliest memories are of going to the NY night spots with his mother to dance the night away.

El Tiguere has been dancing formally (studio taught) for three years and got his name for his swaggy, sexy and sometimes unconventional style of dancing. A true believer in dance what you feel, El Tiguere loves and embraces all styles of dancing, however, his true loves are Bachata and Mambo. A passionate teacher, El Tiguere has been teaching students what he knows about dance since his third month dancing!

With the advent of Island Nights at Club Flava – Island Touch’s weekly dance social – El Tiguere has found yet another avenue to express his love for music via DJ-ing, hence the birth of DJ Tiguere. Since Island Nights’ launch almost a year ago, DJ Tiguere has been gaining the ear of dancers all across FL and the US. Known for variety, DJ Tiguere plays a solid mix of Salsa Dura, Mambo, Cha-Cha and Bachata.

El Tiguere is also an owner of Island Touch Dance Academy, which is an instructor referral service, and also one of the top online providers for dance instruction via virtual classes.
