It was once said that people dance the tango because they have secrets. It goes beyond technique: The tango is sensual, seductive, and passionate. Watching two people tango is so intimate at times that it can make the audience blush. No one knows this better than Maria Pradilla, a World Argentine Tango finalist. Tonight she will show her best moves at a free party from 7:00 to 9:30. The event includes refreshments and a show to celebrate the opening of Generations Dance and Fitness Studios at Paradise Gym. On Saturday and Sunday, the studio will offer free private lessons (by appointment only) to give people a taste of dance or a few of the secrets. The studio offers classes in all types of dance, from swing to salsa to tango. Call 877-423-2623, or visit www.generationsdancestudio.com.
Oct. 20-22
