![]()
Ken Delmar is shown here with the
lovely Brenda Figueroa who assisted Ken in Teaching Tango in 1997.
Caution: Dancers who already know American Tango and other ballroom dances may be too earger to learn new steps and get bored
with beginning lessons, which stress mastering the basic steps with proper technique.
Warm and Friendly. Ken is an extremely warm, friendly and patient instructor.
<== Here Ken is dancing with Natasha, one of the ladies that comes regularly to the Argentine tango classes at 435 Broadway in San Francisco and the Monte Cristo Club on Missouri Street.
UPDATE: Natasha is now Ken's lovely wife!
Teaching From the Inside -- Out
Ken teaches "from the inside -- out" meaning that they stress mental attitude, feeling, posture, and technique right from the beginning rather than just teaching steps.
Hip Surgery. Ken is currently recovering from hip surgery, but his wife Natasha continues to manage tango lessons and parties at the Metronome in San Francisco. For the latest information please call 415-252-9000.
Every Friday there is a tango party sponsored by the Metronome. For details see: http://www.SanFranciscoTango.com

New Year's Eve Party. Last year there was a new Year's Eve Milonga (Tango Dance Party) in San Francisco from 9PM to 2 AM at the Metronome "Block Party" -- ballroom dancing was also be available (can you believe it?).
