Tibor is not only a wonderful greeter but he manages to keep the door traffic moving, which helps us make every minute count for fun and Tango till lights out.
It is a tango fact - "iddy-biddy" rain clouds or rumbling thunder cannot stop our passion for Tango.
Together, we make this Milonga like no other around.
Your dedication and fiery passion are what makes Terri's Firehouse Tango-Milonga....
"The place to be every Thursday night!"
I thank you for your support and loyalty.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
We are the home of "Tango Etiquette".
Our gents are gallant and our ladies are classy. Gentlemen are exceedingly polite when requesting a lady to dance and our ladies are demure and courteous.
I prepare the full combination of Tango spirit, fine music, professional instruction, live entertainment, beautiful glimmering hardwood dance floor, spacious venue, dancing Al-Fresco on our outdoor deck, dim-lit romantic ambiance, snack table, ample parking, convenient location that is about15 minutes from the GW Bridge, gallant gentlemen, elegant ladies, and a passion
that electrifies everyone upon entry.
RECOGNITION REPORT
Silvana Brizuela-Weigel taught the group class. She DJ'd for the rest of the evening too. Her elegant mix of music simply kept everyone dancing effortlessly all night long.
Tango Etiquette is our Terri's Firehouse -Milonga brand. Our members set themselves apart wherever they are by it.
Cortinas:
We add adobo and sofrito to spice up our Cortinas. Our Cortinas are a delicious mix of Salsa, Mambo, Merengue and social style dance that simply keep up the mood with sabor [flavor]. Yet, we consistently remain loyal to our roots.
Remember, here is where we always keep traditional Argentine Tango alive!
Analia Carreno and Luis Ramirez are back from vacation. They are ready to meet and greet each one of you. Look forward to their popular group lesson that we all enjoy so much.
Our members continue to learn from each other as well. I adore the comments I read online about all of you. So proud of you.

Enjoy the end of the class demonstration video: Our Guest Instructor Silvana Brizuela Weigel.
Encourage each other as much as I encourage you. Praise each other, compliment each other, and coach each other. We are not competitors. We are Tango dancers and Tango friends. Etiquette and good manners set us apart from everyone else.
Our newsletters is peppered with tango terminology, history, and bits of factoids to help expand your Tango knowledge.
Tango is not only about learning steps, but understanding and listening to the music.
Each artist interprets the same music /song that you dance to, but the musical styles are different.
Your ear, needs to listen so that you can dance to each interpretation from those artists elegantly.
It is written all over the place that the best way to improve your dancing is to know the music you are dancing to as your body moves with the different styles, so that you may look and be lead gracefully on the dance floor. Your style is yours. Own it.
Courtesy Corner: Common courtesy, good manners and tango etiquette always go a long way in making and keeping friends. What happens at Terri's Firehouse Tango - Stays in Terri's Firehouse Tango!
