TANGO

I had my first ever Tango lesson yesterday. To minimise embarrassment I went with some friends. We were hoping for a beginners class, but could only find mixed level. So after a couple of Dutch-courage beers we got on the huge dance floor. It was great fun, but we certainly didn't look like the people in this picture. For the most part I felt like a clumsy pubescent boy at a school disco. And the three Argentine instructors seemed to make a point out of picking on me, perhaps because of my joking around at the start of class. But after ninety minutes, all four of us beginners were able to successfully dance the first eight steps without falling over or stepping on each others toes. It was lots of fun and I'd love to go again.
