Sue Flanagan (Eléna) and Bernardo Lucero perform Argentinean tango

 Tango in High Society

Sharing Meat and Veggies Family Style

By Mary Anne McCarthy

Published May, 10, 2007 - Morgan Hill Times and Gilroy Dispatch

Consuming everyone's attention at the birthday party of Morgan Hill resident Peggy Schnorr were the two Argentinean-style Tango dancers (Argentine being a BIG meat-eating country), Sue Flanagan (sometimes known as Eléna) and her dancing partner, Bernardo Lucero, left the guests of the party slack-jawed at the improvised, sultry movements on the floor of the Community Center party room. I could almost swear I saw Presbyterian Pastor Mark Inouye cross himself. The Schnorr's, both dance enthusiasts, made sure all of their guests had a chance to show off their moves with a swing dance lesson and I must say I was impressed with the nearly 100 percent participation of the male guests.

Testimonials

I've been taking classes from Sue for about 6 months. The three words I would use to describe her are patient, persistent and passionate.

She is very patient with beginning with all of her students. I always expect a certain grace and calm about her teaching. She is creatively persistent, in that she is always willing to explain the terms, ideas and nuances of tango in a way that helps everyone make a connection. A significant reason for me continuing to take classes from Sue is her passion and excitement for Argentine Tango.

Be warned, she will get you out to a Milonga (a social dance event), and you will be a better dancer for it!
