Blog Post of The Week
"El firulete" is a blog written by a Tango couple who danced with many of the great milongueros. This post is an interview with the milonguero Mingo Pugliese. It gives a wonderful insight into the past of this man and the Tango.
Quote of The Week
"This is something that I want to make real clear; men never danced with each other, because to dance is to go to a milonga. Men practiced in the streets, on the corners."
- Mingo Pugliese
Etiquette of The Week
BEGINNERS Always be kind and supportive to beginners; it does not take much to scare one away from Tango for life. Do not attempt to teach them on the dancefloor or tell them what they are doing "wrong". Try to compliment their dancing and remember that Tango isn't easy!
