about Mo T
 
Mohamed Targhaoui is a Mambo, fitness and football instructor currently working in and around Manchester.

• Born in France to Moroccan parents who imigrated in 1968, Mo grew up in Grenoble.

• Mo's first passion was football - playing from the age of 9 for Grenoble FC. He is a 3 times French Champion in Football Saleo(Indoor) and has achieved one selection for the French National Team. Having gained an FA Coaching Level 1 qualification, Mo has coached kids at Broadheath FC, Bolton FC and Blackburn Rovers FC.

• His interest in sports led him to try ski, Tennis, Marathon, Boxing for 6years, running and Squash but his imagination was finally captured by an unlikely interest - dancing!

• Mo discovered the Manchester Salsa scene in November 1999 and learned the On2 style in 2003. Salsa has taken him all over the world: New York, Paris, London, Birmingham, Amsterdam, Croatia, .... the list goes on!
