Watch: President Obama Dances the Tango During State Dinner in Argentina

President Barack Obama put on his tango-dancing shoes Wednesday night at the Argentinian state dinner held at the Kirchner Cultural Centre in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

According to the Associated Press, the president politely declined a female dancer’s hand a couple of times, but eventually he joined her on the dance floor with first lady Michelle Obama looking on. 

Now, don’t expect to see the president on a season of Dancing With the Stars—he’s no professional—but he was able to hold his own.

But we can’t leave the first lady out of the picture; she got her dance on, as well.

Now we know what the first couple do in their spare time: perfect their tango.
