Raquel Makow, born in San Francisco to a Buenos Aires father and New York mother, started dancing at 10. Dance was innate
for her, leading her to win international ballroom titles and perform globally. At 15, she found her love for Tango and relocated to Buenos Aires in 2013 to chase this passion. In Buenos Aires, Raquel immersed herself in Tango, realizing its profound nature and the need for genuine connection. Through Tango, she discovered more about herself. She also worked as a ballroom judge and coached top competitive couples in Argentina and Uruguay.

Terri's Report for September 21st
2023:
Another Shout Out and Thanks to our Venue Supervisor Mr. Vito Mazza for his on-going efforts in beautifying our hard wood floors to such a high sheen and polish! Hat tip. Looks lovely. We wish him a speedy recovery as he was a bit under the weather.
We ask your cooperation to refrain from using
any powder on the floor or in your shoes that may spill over to the floor.
This defeats the purpose of maintaining a floor already treated and polished. (Thank you)
