Spanish term or phrase: nadie duda en calificar el tango de baile, poesia...
The text is a history of the tango.

I have been a little unsure as to how to tackle this.

Would "no one hesitates in trying to classify the tango as a dance, poetry..." be along the right lines?

Many thanks

Explanation:
though I can't see how "poetry" fits in but that's probably because you didn't see fit to give us the rest of the sentence....

agree  A Hayes: or "no one hesitates..." I wouldn't change the emphasis, i.e. I'd keep "nadie duda" at the beginning of the sentence
