LILY & RAYMOND
We are deeply honored to welcome Asia's top tango masters—and our beloved teachers, Raymond and Lily—as our distinguished judges for this championship!
In our hearts, they are not just dedicated guides who share the authentic art of Argentine Tango; they are the hardworking gardeners who sustain the life of our tango community, and legendary coaches who have led countless students to the podium. With their expertise on the judging panel, they will surely bring the most objective and wonderful international-level guidance and mentorship to all contestants!
Internationally acclaimed Argentine Tango masters and OtroTango founders, Raymond Chu and Lily Cheng, are among Asia's most respected and authoritative competition judges. Training under legendary Buenos Aires maestros since 2003, they are renowned for their exceptional precision and deep cultural understanding. As top competitors, they twice represented Asia at the World Championship, ranking in the semi-final top 4 and finishing as top 30 finalists among 400+ couples. Their accolades include winning the Asian Championship (Salon) in Japan and becoming double champions (Salon & Vals) in China. They have performed at legendary Buenos Aires milongas like Salon Canning and La Baldosa, and regularly teach in major cities including Tokyo, Seoul, Sydney, Singapore, and Taipei. As elite coaches, they organized the 1st Hong Kong Tango Salon Championship, and their students swept all the top three podium spots at the 2018 China Championship. Bringing world-class experience, Raymond and Lily will provide the highest caliber of professional evaluation for this competition.
我們非常榮幸邀請到亞洲頂尖探戈大師——同時也是我們最敬愛的老師 Raymond 與 Lily，擔任本次活動特別嘉賓與探戈比賽評審！
在我們心中，他們不僅是無私傳授正統阿根廷探戈的引路人，是延續探戈社群生命的辛苦園丁，更是帶領無數學生走上頒獎台的傳奇教練。這次大賽有他們的專業坐鎮，絕對能給所有參賽選手最客觀、最美好的國際級指導與傳授！
身為國際頂尖阿根廷探戈大師與OtroTango 創辦人，同時亦是亞洲最具代表性與權威性的資深賽事評審。自 2003 年起，兩人深耕阿根廷探戈藝術，多年赴布宜諾斯艾利斯承襲多位傳奇大師。以細膩的身體質感、極致精準度，以及對傳統探戈文化的深刻理解著稱，是國際舞壇公認兼具傳統底蘊與現代技術的頂尖專家。
作為曾兩度代表亞洲及中國遠征阿根廷世界大賽（World Championship）的旗手，他們在全球 400 多對職業高手的激烈角逐中，寫下兩度殺入世界總決賽前 30 強、準決賽前 4 名的輝煌紀錄。此外，他們亦曾榮獲日本亞洲錦標賽沙龍探戈冠軍，以及中國錦標賽沙龍（Salon）與華爾滋（Vals）雙料冠軍。其專業實力深受探戈聖地認可，曾受邀於布宜諾斯艾利斯指標性舞廳 Salon Canning 與 La Baldosa 進行示範演出，並長期受邀至東京、首爾、雪梨、新加坡、台北等國際大都市巡迴教學。
在賽事推動與裁判領域，他們於 2013 年主辦了第一屆香港沙龍探戈錦標賽，為區域賽事奠定專業標竿。其嚴謹的執教實力更在國際賽事中得到完美應證——其指導學生於 2018 年中國錦標賽中強勢包攬前三名所有獎項。憑藉其世界級的參賽經驗、敏銳的技術眼光與深厚的文化底蘊，Raymond 與 Lily 將以最經驗豐富、客觀的國際視野，為本次大賽提供最具專業性的評判。
