Tango Lesson

---

Sat, Feb 3

I spent the day shoe shopping and got a pair of tango shoes to wear for practicing.

Lesley and I had a wonderful tango lesson with Humberto Pouchulú, “El Puchu,” who teaches classes sometimes at La Casa Maria Tango. He is a professional dancer and beautiful to watch. He is more well known as a folk dancer since he only took up the tango a few years ago, but he is an amazing dancer. Here is a Youtube video of him dancing la Zamba (a folk dance):

and the Tango:

Later we went to “El Arranque” for the afternoon milonga (which lasts until 9:30!).

We then had dinner and tried to find some Cuban Salsa dancing with no success. So we came home and went to bed around 12:00 (an early night by Buenos Aires standards).
