Tango Lessons!



Edili and Scott showing off :)
Our tango hall
This week the majority of the immersion group is taking tango lessons!  After classes (which end at 1:00) we eat lunch in small groups, but then we walk about 20 minutes from the school to a building that has a large floor for dancing.  Our wonderful instructor, Rafa, is doing a great job of teaching us the basics of tango--we're learning a lot, but it's not overwhelming.  We have already learned a lot of different steps, as you can hopefully see in the pictures!
Tango lessons have also been a great way to get to know the whole group.  Up to this point, we haven't spent a ton of time all together, and since we go to different colleges or at least are in different classes, we don't all know each too well.  However, during the tango lessons we switch partners at least every five minutes, so now we all have gotten to know each other a little better.  Plus, it's so much fun!!
Hopefully we'll all return to the U.S. awesome tango dancers!
Hasta luego!

Ruth and Alex are experts already!
