Join us for beginning tango or intermediate tango with Diego Lanau and Alejandra Saravia, Wednesdays in August! Tango is an improvisational dance based on connection and communication. The instructors teach tango figures and lead-follow technique for social dancing. For the beginner class, no experience is necessary. For the intermediate class, we recommend about six months of tango experience.
These classes are taught using the terms “leaders” and “followers,” and are inclusive to queer, trans, and non-binary people. No partner necessary.

7:00-8:00 pm beginning tango
