Richard recently ran a couple of taster sessions at our hospitals which were extremely well received. He made the lessons fun, people thoroughly enjoyed themselves, whether they’d previously danced or not, and there was a definite sense of achievement by the end of each session.

Tango Duende gave me skills and musicality in dancing that my partners praise. When I started I was to taught how to walk like a dancer and to lead the steps in a way that can be followed confidently. Now after practice and patient guidance I can develop the dance to follow the phrasing of the music in a creative way. My Saturday evenings on the floor have earned my many new friends. I recommend Richard.
