  Ballroom dancing does exist in Buenos Aires. In the Carlos Copello studio in 
Abasto, an Argentine couple runs ballroom classes and they do have a good 
number of men and women participating.
During my last visit to Bs As (Aug-Sep 2006), among other items on my 
agenda, I made an effort to find out whether they dance the ballroom version 
of tango.
Yes, they do - the class I attended happened to be a samba and ballroom 
tango class. The men and women I talked to mentioned that they preferred 
this version of tango because it was more elegant. Interesting! I enjoyed 
the class, the people were friendly. At the end of the class, the male 
instructor even danced a Viennese waltz with me . Whoopee!
