Ruben 'Milonga' Terbalca was born and grew up dancing tango in the neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, eventually becoming professor of tango at the Bs As. Tango University . Ruben is an ‘old guard' milonguero and respected hisotrian of tango who brings a wealth of experience and information about tango dance styles, music and customs to his classes. He is widely- known as a very generous and precise teacher, and exciting dancer (wait ‘til you see his milonga..)! His knowledge is vast, his embodiment of the tango deeply passionate and original. Ruben's classes focus on musicality, balance, connection, simplicity and economy of movement as needed on crowded dance floors. You will definitely leave his class a better dancer!!

Some comments from students in the U.S..

"He is the best close embrace tango teacher and performer I have ever seen...I took all of Ruben's lessons ..and I got complements from my partners right away -
I dance better. His knowledge is very deep, very systematic. He builds perfect workshops packed with material and great performance. ..I was looking for such a teacher for years! Igor Polk, San Francisco

"I was very impressed with Ruben's knowledge....he can truly 'walk the
talk...Highly recommended." Dan Diaz, Director of the Tango Camerata and the Rio Plata Inst.
