Michelle Loughlin was a founding member of  Tango Con*Fusión and continues to perform as a guest artist.  Michelle began training formally, (in ballet and jazz), as a teenager and as an adult took up the art of Kenpo Karate.  Michelle studied Kenpo for eight years, while at the same time expanded her dance and stage experience by working with children and adults choreographing, managing and/or directing musicals and variety shows.  Michelle became intrigued with Argentine Tango in the spring of 1999 and by the fall of 2002 was the principal dancer in the highly successful production of Debbie Goodwin's Tango! Rhythms of the Heart! in Sacramento, CA.  Michelle currently teaches privately in Sacramento and the Foothills and is host to the popular "La Milonga de Sacramento" at the YWCA of Sacramento.
