The paths of Jonas and Lander crossed at Escola Superior de Dança during their academic training, starting a collaboration that has become recognized in the Portuguese dance panorama as having a strong author’s signature, with unique contours, that explores the fusion between different performing arts, with special emphasis on music. This brand is immediately touched upon in Cascas d'OvO (2013), his first co-creation, where the rhythmic sense is vertiginously used as the common thread of the entire performance. Jonas & Lander's authorial work has a wide range of performances such as Matilda Carlota (2014), Arrastão (2015), Adorabilis (2017), Lento e Largo (2019) and Coin Operated (2019); also developing projects with local communities such as the piece Playback for the Festival Materiais Diversos (2013) or Caruma (2014), invited by Estufa Plataforma Cultural. In 2015 they founded Sinistra, a Fado house located in Sintra, whose legal structure functions as a production house for the duo's authorial work. 

In 2017, they participated in the documentary series Portugal que Dança. They were part of the film Body Buildings, premiered in 2020. 

Their most recent creation Bate Fado is premiering at the DDD 2021.
