I'm really a tango dancer at heart...

So after Salsa class this Wednesday, David, my teacher, said he was going to a Tango class that he takes. He asked if I wanted to come watch, so of course I said yes. Once we got there, he told the instructor that I danced Tango, and the instructor took me aside and started dancing with me (in sneakers no doubt!) He said I danced well, and asked if I might want to be in his show in the end of May! I ended up staying for the whole class, dancing the entire time, and afterwards, the instructor, Roberto, said I could come to the more advanced class on Saturdays (I was in the beginner's on Wednesday) or even take private lessons. So, of course, that's what I'm doing tomorrow. And even better, tomorrow evening, there's a Milonga (Tango social dance) at the same place as the classes! I'm so excited to be dancing Tango again (I had forgotten how much I missed it!) It felt so good to be dancing, and I'm so excited for the Milonga. Also, I'm planning on buying a pair of Tango shoes here, because they're only like $30, and it'd be nice to have my own! (I've been borrowing Kaki's, my sister-in-law's, shoes for almost 3 years! haha) And what's fun is that Barbara, an older woman who is taking Spanish classes at the Academy, is taking Tango there too, so I'll get to see/hang out with her in class and at the Milonga. Can't wait! =)
