The San Antonio Tango Festival was so much fun! Thank you Angela Avila and Jairelbhi George Furlong for inviting me to DJ and for putting together such wonderful event! It was great to reconnect with students and colleagues, some of which I had not seen in over 12 years, as well as to meet new ones! I feel inspired after the classes and the great dances I had. All of that in addition to a gorgeous venue, nice people, and wonderful hosts for Gary and me. I feel happy!

Amazing first festival! The location couldn’t have been better for people out of town. The tango show was outstanding, as was the music selection.  The Mariachis were a great extra. Looking forward to next year festival.

For people like me who don’t know who’s who in the tango would, a little bit research by Google confirmed my suspicion, only after the show at San Antonio Tango Festival. I feel so lucky to have benefitted from their teaching.
