A Special Note From Your Host, Lauren:
“As many of you know, I recently tore my ACL and underwent surgery. I am currently going through my post-op recovery protocol, which means I won’t be able to dance with you all just yet. However, I am still absolutely hosting my Milonga Rouge birthday celebration! I miss our beautiful tango community so dearly and would love nothing more than for you all to come out, fill the room, and share this evening with me.

“This will also serve as a bittersweet send-off—fingers crossed, once my doctor gives the official approval, I will be heading out on a leisure vacation to Argentina! While it’s now a trip for rest and relaxation rather than performing, I cannot wait. Please come out to enjoy some incredible food, catch up, and say a temporary goodbye before my trip. I have dedicated so much of my tango life to this community, and seeing your faces would mean the world to me. Let’s make this an unforgettable night, and I look forward to visiting you all again, sooner than later!”
