Tango Argentino Foundations course

Today we're back at our regular room. Main entrance. Ground floor on your left.

Get ready to step up your dance game with Tango Argentino in a fun, easy-going class, even if you think you have two left feet!

This course will give you perspective and a good understanding of how the Tango Argentino language works.

We’ll break down the fundamental tango patterns, understand their internal structure, and explore the movement principles that make them possible.

Alongside the course, a weekly practice session helps what you learn in the classes land in your body and stay with you.

By the end of the Foundations course, you'll be able to walk onto a social floor and dance with someone you've never met, using the essential movements that form the Tango Argentino vocabulary.

Afterwards, you can continue learning more variations and progressively more complex patterns at our Tango Improver course.

Learn the map → Understand the language → Discover what you can do with it

Best for you if you want to:
* Build a solid Tango Argentino vocabulary on a steady group pace (registration closes after the 3rd class so we can progress together).
* Understand how classic Tango Argentino figures are constructed and interconnected.
* Clarify movements as you learn them.
* Develop a more systematic understanding of Tango Argentino.
* Gain tools for learning (and creating) new figures instead of simply copying them.

Join with or without a dance partner and learn both roles.

📍 Hegelgasse 14, 1010 Wien
🗓 Wednesdays from 18:00 to 19:00

*Participation in the Focused Práctica (Wednesdays 20:15-22:00) isn't mandatory but encouraged and it is included in your course registration at no extra cost. The more you practice, the fastest your progress is.
