Every Monday evening, I go with my friend Lina and our teacher, Ale, to a milonga for what’s called a practica. In the milonga itself, it’s frowned upon to do any teaching, but in a practica it’s quite acceptable. So going with your teacher is ideal. Because there are two of us, we each find other men invite us to dance while Ale is dancing with the other one.

Anyway, last week I shot this short clip of Ale and Lina dancing milonga, and obviously having fun. I kept shooting until they danced out of sight!

Normally, I would have clipped the end off this one just before that other couple came into the picture, but I left it in for a reason. As you can obviously see, these two very old people. They have been married forever, but they only started dancing tango during the lockdown! I guess like everybody else they were looking for something to do, so they took up tango. And now they are there faithfully every Monday, dancing their little hearts out. How cool is that? I just love tango.
