Guest DJ "Amazin Al Ko" really brought us the wonderful Christmas Spirit with Carols as Cortinas. Nice touch! Kudos for the mixture of the traditional with the "Nuevo".
Everyone caught the spirit dancing to the "swing" and "twist". The floor was just full of good fun and laughs had by all. It was a thing of beauty to see.
So, I'll continue offering a unique mixture and wide variety of favorites every Thursday, to expand your versatility and most important thing of all... have fun!
Your ability and confidence to change up with the music is evident. Everyone watching you will immediately determine that you must be from Terri's Firehouse Tango-Milonga II. Everytime that happens, I get to claim those bragging rights.
At Terri's Firehouse Tango-Milonga II, we are proud to boast of our diverse crowd of people in steady attendance. Word is spreading, that our gentlemen are gallant. Our ladies are classy. Our public image is welcoming. We are the place to be every Thursday night.
Tango is a journey of self discovery. There is always more to learn, especially from each other. Impeccable courtesy is the mark of a well seasoned Tanguero/Tanguera.
Wait till you see the talented and fun line up of guest DJs I am working on for you to finish up 2019.
Our guest instructors; Karena Romero and Jorge Cardona are so proud of the progress our friends have made so quickly. I am proud of you all too.
Watch out for my next message: "Terri's Tango Tutor" under separate email. It is good to save, re-read, share and recall as a topic of discussion about music, style, etiquette, and all around Tango guru.
We continue to be complimented on how everyone is falling into their roles beautifully, making the invite to dance welcoming yet coy, seductive yet aloof, all at the same time. This is the allure, mystique and mastering the art behind Tango. Master it.
What sets us apart, is the dim-lights, flickering candles ambiance and captivating music puts us in the Tango mood. It transports you to the smoky, side alley cafes of Argentina, without a plane ticket.
Our event is growing nicely because we continue to embrace everyone. We only get one chance at a first impression. Gallantry, impeccable courtesy, class is what we are and how we do it around here.
Also, recall how you felt when you were a first timer anyplace. Summoning the courage to walk into a room of people you do not know yet is not so easy.
So be a bit patient and courteous to first timers. Cut them some slack. Give them the space to acclimate to our protocols.
Nice job by "Club Tango". Lovely photo gallery and interviews. Check them out on our Facebook page.
Thanks to the vivacious and witty Doc Sharon and keen eye of "Black Hat Jake" Rovito. Give them a like on Facebook.
