* Our recommended capacity limits are temporarily targeted at 31 persons in a space large enough for 125 people - Enough space to accommodate the suggested guidelines recommended by the State of NJ.

ALL ARE WELCOME TO JOIN US.
RE-UNION MEET UP:
Happy to report our Re-Union Meet Up will be remembered as Terri's "Fabulous" Firehouse Tango-Milonga 2.
The Tangueros were "fabulous". The live-music was "fabulous". The DJ was "fabulous". The instructors were.... "fabulous"!
It was a fabulous mix of first-timers and all-timers; meeting, socializing, chatting tango, and genuinely enjoying one another's company for an evening of fun, relaxation and re-uniting after such a long separation.
The night just flew by in a blink of an eye.
The live music by Maurizio Najt and Javier Sanchez accentuating the unique sounds of the Bandoneon was stirring.
The room reverberated wall to wall with the classical Tango rhythms of the masterful soloist Maurizio Najt.
Then magically accompanied by the mystical notes suddenly filling the air, singing from the soulful Argentine Bandoneon artfully played by Javier Sanchez.
Also, his versatility matched his virtuosity when he manned the DJ table and kept the Tangueros on the dance floor all night long.
Together, they embodied the art, skill, and gallantry of Argentine Tango music, culture, and style of why we value our community and the opportunity to imbibe and savour it together.
Luis Ramirez and Analia Carreno are master tango instructors who are world traveled, charming, graceful, and such a pleasure. You all will learn from them and have fun doing it.
All together it was... A "Fabulous" night and why Terri's Firehouse Tango Milonga is the place to be.
Big hugs and thank you to the amazing Carmen Baker, Carlos Naranjo and his beautiful wife Hannah, and their 2 wonderful guests, for their thoughtfulness marking the first year anniversary of Terri's Firehouse Tango Milonga 2.
You all are what helped to make it such a "fabulous" night.
