Take Dance Lessons

The Class.  Our instructor is on the right.

I will be the first to admit that I have two left feet.  I've always wanted to take part in some sort of dance class.  So when the owner of my bed and breakfast suggested I take a Tango Class I knew I had to do it, afterall Buenos Aires is home to the Tango.  I took a taxi and was dropped off at Complejo Tango, and I sat patiently waiting as other students came in for the one hour class.

Some of the students in my class dancing. This is when we started dancing with our partners. It got only more complicated...

We were brought into a dance studio, and we were split up by sex.  We each learned our moves, and after we got those moves down, then we danced together.  The ratio between male and female was a bit one sided, so the women had to patiently wait to get to dance with the men.

 Me with my certificate of completion

It was HARD, and it didn't take long to learn that I lacked major coordination!  I would like to announce that I will forever be retiring from Tango, solely for the sake of every person that would have to witness me attempting it.
