Support Your Local University Tango Club! (East Coast)

These tango clubs/student organizations are the source of our new, young dancers. İ have seen the rejuvenation of the tango scene in New York and the tri-state area due to Robin Thomas’s work with the clubs at Yale, Princeton, Columbia, and other nearby universities. These clubs expose young people to tango at an affordable price before they graduate and get caught up with hustle and bustle of their careers. İ encourage all tango dancers in the area to attend these festivals and support the growth of this dance, this art form, that we love so much!! If you are on the EAST COAST, I invite you to attend the 3rd Terrapin Tango Festival in College Park, Maryland on April 20 - 22, 2012!

Artists:

Ney Melo & Rosa Corisco Eric Lindgren & Rebecca Rorick Smith Adam Hoopengardner & Ciko Tanik
