Tango Salon is the beautifully elegant tango style that is found in milongas (tango clubs) all over the world. It is always challenging to describe a dance using words but for us tango salon encompasses certain essential elements:

  • The Tango Walk (or “caminata”)
  • The Close Embrace
  • Improvisation
  • Musicality

In this four-week series we will look these important essential elements and the techniques surrounding them. Whilst each workshop will build on the last, each session can also be taken as a stand alone. Don’t worry we’ll make sure you can confidently and comfortably follow all the material whether you attend one, two, three or four weeks!

  • No partner needed – book in (above) or walk in!
  • These workshops are suitable for improver level upwards.

Location
