Tango for everyone

Jay’s life work was to make Argentine Tango available to everyone, and as easy to learn as any dance, or driving, or tennis – a few hours of guidance, and you can do it well enough to fit in on the dance floor, where you can practice and learn all you want.  Argentine Tango is fun . . . and can be easy to learn.  Enjoy the Posts!
