TERRI'S REPORT AND COMMENTS
NEW STUFF:
Surprise, surprise, surprise!
My scouts found us this nice, spacious and easily accessible location in Park Ridge, NJ.07656 Conveniently situated just a few minutes off the last exit of the Garden State Parkway [Exit 172]
It is perfect for us. Featuring:
Sleek hard wood floor
Private parking lot
and a 'legionnaire members
only' bartender when he is on-duty downstairs is made available to me as a courtesy.
Along with the mirrored walls for our lessons that gives off such silky studio vibe and pleasant acoustics.
It took time to locate a suitable place that suits our needs but with perseverance and patience we
found it. Now let us enjoy it together!
TERRI'S REPORT:
Our very fifth Milonga at the new Park Ridge, NJ location on Thursday April 17th, 2025, was as much of a pleasant surprise as the first.
We all felt right at home here. The positive vibes with the good friends that joined us made it another night to remember.
I have worked very hard to find a place that is suitable for all of us, despite that you can't please everyone. But this spot is
it.
It checks all the boxes, so come on down, join us, and enjoy this ambiance.
Thank you all for so many well wishes and compliments.
Now let's kick off our Springtime Milonga 2025 all together again!
OUR TALENT:
Great job Marcelo Mesa! He glided across the dance floor with precision and the lesson was so much
fun.
See the videos on our FACEBOOK Firehouse Tango-Milonga 2 page.
Our Milonga is the best around. Dress for dancing Tango. We observe Tango Etiquette at all times.
This is the best place to be every Thursday night for Argentine Tango.
PRIVATE LESSONS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST - I urge you to CALL ME DIRECT: 845 270-1201 so that I can schedule you accordingly
I book the best talent, performers, DJ's and diverse instructors for variety and fresh styles so that you are served the best entertainment
and Tango dancing anywhere every Thursday night.

That is what makes us the place to be every Thursday night!
