Our New Best Friend(s): Rodrigo & Wendy Jimenez

by Tim Miner on November 25, 2020

We thought we’d add a little extra spice to your Thanksgiving week … and the last week of Dancing with the Stars. (What!?!?! We already miss it!)

The turkey in the oven ain’t the only thing cooking that’s muy caliente right now! Our new best friends, Rodrigo and Wendy Jimenez, professional Latin dancers and instructors, share dance videos on Instagram that are so hot, you’ll need pot holders to handle your cell phone.

Originally from Chile, Rodrigo is an adjunct lecturer in the College of Arts + Architecture at UNC Charlotte. Since 2003, he’s performed across Charlotte with Opera Carolina and Charlotte Symphony, as well as creating events devoted to promoting Latin culture with his wife and dance partner, Wendy. Together, they dance Salsa, Bachata, Tango, Flamenco and Kizomba, but they’re known for their expertise in fusion styles “SalsaTango” and “BachaTango.”

Their fun, passionate and energetic videos are entrancing, captivating us as we scroll through our feed. And now, they’ll entrance you, too.
