Customer Reviews

• Sonoma, CA
  

  Thank you Christy and George for a great series of Tango instructional DVDs. Each step is explained clearly and slowly for both the follower and the leader and is demonstrated from several angles. Rather than teaching only one way of incorporating the step into the dance, they give several suggestions.

• Derbyshire, England
  

  The dvds of The Argentine Tango are indeed excellent being well produced and so clearly illustrated making learning such a joy. As stated before we are liking the dvds very much being the inspiration in our learning and understanding of this beautiful dance.
