Teo and Marsha ...
Testimonial #1. Kathryn Johns
"By the end of the first day, we had an amazing comfort level with each other, even those we met for the first time. Teo and Marsha's energy brought to the fore the deeper "spiritual” aspects of this beautiful dance by embodying it in their approach and leaving us with the feeling of having been to a new level of experience, one which we will continue to seek.
As their special gift to us, a few very HOT dances were performed for our delight. Their strong connection as a couple was beautifully demonstrated and felt in their dance. This has been the most amazing workshop experience we've had and we feel we have made new friends as well. Looking forward to many heartfelt tangos!
"Testimonial #2. Cliff and Glynda Newton
"But learning a series of steps is not the essence of Teo and Marsha's approach. Their concept and method of teaching involves the spiritual connection between dancers as well as the same spiritual connection between the teachers and their student dancers. Tango, and especially close embrace tango, is very much a study of personal dynamics."

#3. Dubravko Kakarigi
" I came to the class doubting my ability to actually learn how to dance tango, wearing totally inappropriate clothing, and generally feeling awkward and shy about it. That's when I met Marsha and Teo. Through their enthusiastic, loving, and skillful teaching I slowly gained confidence and understanding of the basic principles of tango dancing milonga style.
They taught about the embrace, about the posture, balance, attitude, about the relationship between the dancing partners. Oh yes, they also taught our class a few basic steps that first time, but the most important thing they achieved with us was that they helped us believe that we too can dance and enjoy dancing tango.
I then truly understood that to enjoy tango does not mean to be able to perform all the steps perfectly, but it is to let you heart and the music lead you and your dancing partner in your own creation in a trance full of passion, beauty, and love. Tango danced that way is poetry in motion. I realize that I have made just the very first baby steps in tango dancing, but even those few steps made it possible for me enjoy it, to feel its magic. I look forward to further guidance by Marsha and Teo. There is so much more to learn from them."

"I love tango! It has been a wonderful experience for me! Teo and Marsha are exceptional teachers who are not only able to teach tango but teach tango to those who have never danced before period...this is a dance of close embrace with another individual and for those moments you are dancing with that person one really feels as though you are of one heart and four legs. It is sensual, sexy, erotic and fun....."

#15. Joanne Stevens, M.D., Psychiatrist
"When I first saw Teo and Marsha perform tango I was shocked and surprised. I have never seen anything so beautiful and so intimate. They conveyed a very wholesome sensuality that warmed the hearts of everyone in the room. They are marvelous healers and ambassadors of the heart. In my opinion, most people in our society need more of the closeness and openness that the Argentine tango cultivates. It is an excellent practice for promoting emotional health and for enriching relationships."

#16. Ken Grauer, M.D. Family Practice
"I love Argentine tango. More than just a dance, it is almost a way of life (if not an addiction). As a physician and full time educator, I have found dancing my most invigorating pastime as a wonderfully enjoyable way to relieve stress, meet fun-to-be-with and interesting people, and just have fun. My most sincere appreciation extends to Teo and Marsha... They have become skillful dancers who live tango and thrive on sharing their passion with all who are interested- regardless of whether or not you have danced before."

Testimonial
#18. Jaclyn and Jesse Rhoads
"Marsha and Teo move so easily along the floor, it's as if they are one. They performed two dances at our wedding
reception, and truly added a unique flair to our special night. Their sensuality, fluidity, gracefulness, and awe-inspiring
movements captured the romance and passion of our special day. This special couple will provide you with a memorable
and artistic way to represent your passion for love, music, and life, either as a dancer or as a spectator."
Testimonial
#19. Jessi Larsen
"Teo and Marsha turned me into a tango addict! My friends still make fun of me whenever I get worked up talking about the dance, I get such a dreamy far-off look in my eyes... Seriously, though, Teo and Marsha are great dancers and great teachers, without whose encouragement and individual attention I would not have gone nearly as far as a tanguera. They inspire a unique love for the dance that keeps you coming back for more, helping you tap into the transformative power of movement that is nowhere more eloquently expressed than in tango."

reception helped to make it the most romantic wedding ever."
