glad I came to see it. Victor has that real Tanguero feeling in his body! Awesome! Hugs ans kisses. Yulia

technique at the Balboa Park, and I can see that you obvious to anyone, in addition
your infectious enthusiasm. I can understand the appeal of the tango at your lessons.
Clearly, it's a lot of fun, at least after gaining some experience and proficiency. Your
teaching style is really outstanding. Robert Harrington
Your lesson was an A+! You helped me with the attitude and the basics steps. You
challenged me to perform and the results were noticeable at the next Milonga. I
received feedback that my dancing was greatly improved in a one week period. I feel
some of tangos hidden mystery. You are my Master, - a wise and all-knowing teacher!
 Your wisdom is unquestionable. Thank you for believing in me. John Linares, your
student in 2004

I felt your energy. I could almost touch it! I knew then I
had found my tango teacher. Francia, Temecula
I read your article entitled, Rules for the Followers, and appreciated your great insights
into tango. How similar the dynamics between a leader and follower on the dance floor
are to the dynamics between a man an a woman in a relationship. Also, I really liked
that you gave specific advice on how to follow and improve. You really have
something to say, and everything you write seems to be rich with meaning and
insights. I really appreciate your warm and welcoming spirit, too. Your friend Billie
Jeanne De Simone

your request to keep silent during them. Stefano

supporting and enjoying  a venue such as Elena Pankey with her husband. She was
radiating her usual passion and skills as a great example to all of keeping the adventure
and discovery of tango fresh and alive.Billie DeSimone from mIlonga at Hot Monkey.
