Bruce Wee
began dancing tango back in
1999 and been an avid
dancer of the art ever since. Born and raised in Hawaii, he began
studying tango with good friend and mentor, George Garcia. He
strives to explore all the flavors and nuances of the various
styles of tango and not be a proponent of one style over another.
Instead, trying to find the joy and richness in each of them. |
