Welcome to this forum, open to all "milongueros" (Argentine tango fanciers) and tango lovers living in north-central Alabama. The purposes of this group are to diffuse argentine tango news, support tango events, and promote communication among milongueros in our community. The only prerequisite for membership is that you consider yourself an argentine tango fancier. Come and join us! This site contains old and new messages, photos of the group, profiles of the instructors, class syllabus, and interesting tango links.
