Fellow Tangueros, This message contains a lot of important information about tango activities in NY and I hope you will read it carefully.
Though Empire Dance is only 5 months old, we are so excited to have so many great Tango activities coming up in February. Somehow, the month has turned into a full-blown celebration of Valentine's day, and of course that means romance and dance, and TANGO! I sincerely hope to see you soon, and I hope you will help spread the word about the activities that are especially designed to welcome newcomers into our wonderful NYC tango community. If you are visiting from out of town, please make sure to introduce yourself to me and I will be happy to introduce you to the community of dancers. Thank you all, and happy tangos, Reba Perez President, Empire Dance Fab Feb @ Empire Dance: Focus on TANGO! Group Classes, Private Lessons & Parties!
