Jorge Torres needs no introduction to the dancers whom he has inspired in the San Francisco Bay Area. He is amazing to behold on the dance floor, as he dances with a quiet and smooth yet powerful style. [Editor: Read the interview at www.bayareatango.org/interview/jorge-torres for a sample of Jorge's personality and great teaching style.]
Jorge will be accompanied by his wife, Chino – who will be bringing her range of stylish tango shoes by Felina Shoes.
