🕰 It’s been a minute since we last hosted the all-night milonga at The Beat. How long ago was February, 2020 again? We almost forgot how much work there was before and after, and everything in between that could possibly go wrong... But last Saturday we pulled it off! 🙌

🤗 Shout out to @dombhuphaibool and all those who joined the Chacarera class, and to DJ @dhruvsyngh for the great music that kept everyone dance all night!

(now, time for a little break before we venture to the east coast...🛫)

🤟 3 days ago we celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary by doing what we love the most - teaching & dancing milonga! 🥳 Finishing our last class of the 3-week Milonga series at @abrazoqueertango with an improvised role-switching demo performance was truly special!

♥️ Every time when someone outside of our tango circles ask us "how did you two meet?", we always say "we met on the dance floor". What we often don't have the right moment to share is, it's nothing like those love-at-first-sight drama scenes. Life is like tango off the dance floor. There are blissful rondas and there are challenging ones. We've walked some miles, and yet it's still just early in a life-long journey. ¡Vámonos!

🥳 Yay, WE DID IT! 🥳 the 8-week intro to #tango beginner series at @ywcaberkeleyoakland was a wrap!

🙏 We are very grateful for this seriously happy bunch for their trust in us. ♥️ They made learning the fundamentals fun & special every week for the past two months. 🤗 Treating them with yummy empanadas by @theba.cafe and alfajores by @woodentablebaking seems just right! 😋

The Chinese has a saying, “千里之行，始於足下”, which means “the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”. Tango is a dance of walking, and we love the introductory classes because we want to help our students walk their first a few tango steps with warm feelings, and carry that with them as they continue the learning journey on their own terms.

@jonas.aqui is still out of commission (feisty fist waving at the damn 🦠!), so Xiaomin's solo teaching continues TOMORROW at @abrazoqueertango, week 2 of the 3-part Milonga series! 🌈 More tools & tips for your milonga dancing so you can stop stressing out about it! 🤓

Eat. Sleep. Tango. Repeat. That was the rhythm we had last weekend thanks to @noras_tango_week .

@jonas.aqui had a blast DJing the Afternoon Milonga on Saturday – it was so lovely to see our friends connect & watch them dance, even a baby tanguera was on the floor!

We also got to study with @maja_marko_tango again after 4 years, learned from @inesmuzzopappa & @gabymatalovely for the first time, danced & caught up with old friends & made new ones, awestruck & inspired by maestros' performances, witnessed the historical moment of Nora passing the torch to the next generation (huge congrats @tanguera_e & Ramada!), enjoyed live tango music by @pabloestigarribiaok, Seth Asarnow & @jazzgirltt @voice.declassified, watched documentary films, recharged with yummy treats from @formosachocolates & @woodentablebaking, and shared snippets of the 4-day long event & our ♥️ for #tango through the lens of @sflovestango.

It was a very packed yet rewarding #staycation for us!
