About Rick & Lynda Wilson

In the Argentine tango world, the simplest meaning of tango salon  is social tango. I am an avid social tango dancer. And, I have a meticulous approach to teaching the mechanics of Argentine tango - with an emphasis on posture, floorcraft and musicality. In addition to weekly tango classes, I offer workshops in classic tango themes and special topics - such as Milonga, Tango Techniques, Canyengue (vintage Argentine tango), Tango Doble Frente, Tango Embellishments, and Transitions in the Embrace (from close to open and vice versa).

I have enjoyed teaching and performing nationally, with my late husband Rick Wilson:
Atlanta, Augusta, Columbus, Macon, LaGrange, Milledgeville, and Rome, GA
Auburn, Birmingham, and Montgomery, AL
Nashville and Knoxville, TN
Charlotte and Wilmington, NC
Charleston, SC
New Orleans, LA
Jensen Beach, FL
Newport Beach, CA
Kauai and Big Island, HI

Lynda has always been active in the arts, playing the violin, earning a BA in Sculpture, and exploring a variety of dance forms - including jazz, ballet, modern, and ballroom.

Rick started tap dancing at the age of seven - reaching an advanced level. He performed in amateur and professional musical theatre productions. While earning his BA in Economics, he studied ballet and modern dance, at Florida State University and in New York City.

I carry a line of premium quality tango shoes and ballroom shoes - designed in the USA and handcrafted in Mexico, and invite you to visit my online dance shoe boutique tangosalonshoes.com.
