About

Class description: From the backstreets of Buenos Aires to Parisian high society, this is the extraordinary dance that captivated the world - a tale of politics and passion, immigration and romance. The Tango was the cornerstone of Argentine culture, and has lasted for more than a hundred years, popular today in America, Japan and Europe. Born in the poverty stricken Buenos Aires, the craze of the early 20th century, right up until its revival today, thanks to shows such as Strictly Come Dancing. This lesson offers history, heritage and knowledge of the Traditional Argentine Tango. It is an elegant and cohesive session of the fascinating tale of the Tango.

Who is it for:? Adults of all ages, beginners welcome This class is taught with partners in mind. If you attend as an individual you may like to partner with another person who is attending the class. However, you are welcome to dance the steps on your own if you prefer.


What should I bring:? A bottle of water



What should I wear:? You can wear comfortable clothes that let you move. Flowing skirts, gaucho or capri pants are a good option for women. For men, pants that are loose and allow movement. As a beginner, you don’t need any special shoes to dance tango, but shoes with a leather or suede sole are helpful. You need to be able to turn easily on the ball of your foot as there’s a lot of pivoting in tango. Women usually prefer heels anywhere from 1”- 4”, but you should wear whatever kind of heel you’re comfortable in.
