** ABOUT LUIS & ELIZABETH (TANGO Y NADA MAS) **

  Great teachers with a fantastic reputation and following. Their workshops will have a strong emphasis on the most beautiful and elegant Villa Urquiza, Buenos Aires style.'We like to remain close to the social element in our tango, and that is why our teaching focuses on the embrace, the walk - which is the basis for everything else -, and the music without which we wouldn't be dancing.'
