Despite the modern content, you feel like you are entering an old world where secrets and sensuality meet to form the dance that smolders in intimacy. The dark wood and warm colors along with the winding staircase leading upstairs to the burgundy draped studio make you feel like you have entered an elite kingdom belonging only to the initiated. But democracy rules here, with a friendly, reassuring atmosphere that embraces everyone. At Tango Brujo there is no attitude. Only the willingness to impart knowledge and to share in the exuberance of Tango’s expanding vocabulary. [...] [...] It is an ironic feeling to walk into Tango Brujo.
