Strictly Argentine Tango: The Stage Podcast #48

The Stage Podcast #48 cover

Next week, the three couples competing in the Strictly Come Dancing semi-final will each perform an Argentine Tango in their quest to compete in the following week’s final.

Argentine Tango experts Kele Baker and Ralf Schiller teach the dance style to the celebrities and professional dancers who have reached this stage in the competition. They have also written a book, Strictly Come Dancing: Step-by-Step Dance Class, which illustrates each of the classic ballroom and Latin dances used in the series.

I went to Kensington Dance Studio and met Kele Baker to talk about the book, the Argentine Tango — and to sneak a few minutes of tango practice.

Strictly Come Dancing: Step-by-Step Dance Class is published by BBC Books, ISBN 9781-1-846-07765-4, RRP £9.99
