Tango Report:
"Fabulous" Firehouse Tango-Milonga 2 is growing as we welcome our latest first-timers and recent arrivals.
What a welcome addition to our ever expanding membership community who choose to spend their time here with us to partake in our common passion for Tango.
Our Tangueros graced us with their unique moves and blends of elegant style. They all boldly occupied our expansive dance floor with end to end 'sacadas', 'ganchos', and 'boleos'.
Wow! Just wow! It was a beautiful sight to see. Cannot wait till next Thursday.
We continue to enjoy a lovely 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.
These nights just fly by in a blink of an eye. I enjoyed watching all of you dance the night away care-free and fun-filled. You are what makes us the place to be.
The live music by DJ Javier Sanchez was in a word.... perfection. He has a talent to read the dance floor and keep it going seamlessly.
Our Master Tango Instructors, the gallant Luis Ramirez and elegant Analia Carreno were gracious, steamy, inspiring, and simplified the complex for everyone to catch on fire once they were set loose on the dance floor, fueled on by the talent of our unstoppable DJ Javier Sanchez.
What a team we have! All together, you are the 'fire' in "Terri's Firehouse Tango-Milonga 2".
BRAGGING RIGHTS:
All together it was a fun night of dance, song and friendship. You are why Terri's Firehouse Tango Milonga remains the place to be every Thursday Night! So reserve your energy and mark your calendars, you will need it.
Big hugs and thanks to all of you who kicked in and helped. Love you all.
