They live in Japan, have made five trips to Buenos Aires, and attend classes at the School of Carlos Copello. I stand corrected after listening to a radio interview with Hiroshi.

They competed in the V Campeonato Metropolitano (2007) and placed 4th in milonga and 9th in tango salon. They qualified to compete because they were living in Buenos Aires. They competed in the V Campeonato Mundial (Aug 2007) and placed 6th in Tango Salon category and 3rd in Stage Tango category. [Their standings in the previous campeonatos can be found on the internet.] They were familiar to the judges of the Campeonato Mundial since they probably have studied with some of them during their years in BsAs. They represented Japan in the Campeonato Mundial although they have lived in the city of Buenos Aires for at least three years. They were being groomed for the title. They are lovely dancers, but they didn't just show up in August and win the title for their country. Daniel Naccuchio, who won the world championship in 2008, taught tango for several years in Japan. I wouldn't be surprised if the Yamaos studied with him in Tokyo. Dancers may not be aware that Kyoko and Hiroshi Yamao were not new competitors to the championships in Buenos Aires.
