That’s because of those extremely sensuous moves that make up this wonderful dance form. The Argentine Tango was introduced in New York in 1921 by the silver screen’s most loved Latin Lover, Rudolph Valentino although...

Newcomer Foxtrot & Merengue
Really enjoyed the Lesson! Instructors were fantastic, reception was welcoming and it was a relatively accessible building by public transit. Only downside was just how introductory the class was, I think we only learned two steps per dance! Which is understandable, but I think, is a bit short of an introduction, a "Hi, hello," as opposed to a "Hi, hello, my name is..."
