Outside of Argentina, Portland is perhaps one of the best places to learn this passionate social dance. Thanks to the many amazing Portland teachers, DJs, and organizers, the Portland Tango community is large, friendly and growing by the minute! There are milongas (tango dances) every night of the week, weekly classes, practicas, and workshops, as well as two of the largest Argentine Tango festivals in the U.S., one in February and another in October. If you want to learn and dance tango in North America, Portland is a great place to do it!

This group is for anyone interested in meeting new people and dancing Argentine Tango in a fun and welcoming environment. Bailamos!
