“For a long time I’ve wanted to improve my Argentine Tango knowledge both for myself personally and for my teaching. I have read many books and watched many DVDs but I have found none of them to be all that clear or concise in terms of the mechanics of the dance but also the terminology and technical terms used. Tom Peña has created some DVDs for UKA Dance and suddenly it all makes sense to me. Starting with utter basics and moving upwards, I now understand the dance like I never have before, from both a leader’s and follower’s perspective. I’d like to thank Tom for his hard work in creating this DVD along with his wonderful assistant, Ali Pollard.”
