Argentine Tango is the "dance of the heart". Tango is a conversation between leader (masculine energy) and follower (feminine energy). To dance well requires connecting with your partner. Learning to dance Argentine Tango can be intimidating. The key to dancing well is to learn the basics, which are easy steps (if you can walk, you have the ability to tango), and to master them - i.e. learn them well enough so you don't have to think too much when you do them. This is a simple thing, but no …

These days, most of the dance clubs and social meetup groups are focused on music from the 80s and later, from hair metal to house to hip-hop to funk/R&B to DJ mashups and the like. What is missing is a group with an emphasis on live band music from oldies rock and roll, to classic 60s rock (the British invasion, beach music, folk and acid rock, etc.) through the more popular 70s rock (Eagles, Doobies, etc.) You know the kind of music I am talking about! Well, THIS IS IT! Dancing to live mus …

Biodanza, which means Dance of Life, is a system that integrates music, movement and authentic interactions to provide experiences of intense perception of being alive in the here-and-now.

Vivencias follow the organic movements of life—its biological rhythms, the pulse of the heart, …

This group is for people who both love to dance and to support charitable organizations (with time or money). I want to merge these two areas, somehow. That's all I know. I need help defining the rest. With your help, this can shift from a random thought to something tangible. Will we throw dance parties in the name of particular charitable causes? Will we dance to raise money for causes? Will we ask non-profits to dance? The possibilities are endless.
