We dance a relaxed some might call it 'Nuevo' style tango, but what we teach in the basic classes will be applicable whatever style of tango you eventually decide suits you best.
Our dance has an emphasis on playfulness, creativity and musicality, but we also work to acheive good posture and a polished technique in our own bodies which engenders good communication and connection with each other.

Both of us have danced for many years and have trained with many highly regarded teachers in Argentina and Europe on various visits.

What to bring

If you can find a partner to come with it does help (especially if you can practice between classes) but its not a requirement - plenty of people come alone and you will find someone to dance with at the class.

Wear shoes that you can pivot in - ideally a leather or suede sole. Ladies, shoes with an ankle strap will offer better support.
Your clothes should allow you to move freely. Most importantly, bring a generous attitude towards your partner!

What to expect from one of our classes

The basic classes (7.30pm) cover what we consider to be the fundemental steps of tango. Through these steps you learn about your body and the way it moves, and the way it can communicate with your partner. Even when you have mastered the footwork of these steps it is advisable to continue coming to these classes as the footwork is only the beginning; when you have it under your belt you can work on refining other movements in the body and changing the timing of your steps to illustrate the melodies and rhythms your ear will become accustomed to in the music. You will really begin to understand how it feels to dance tango, become elegant and fluid in your movements and dance musically and easily.

The intermediate class (8.30pm) gives ideas for variations on the step we have taught in the previous class. The session is good for expanding leading vocabulary, and for giving follower's a more challenging lead to respond to. This class helps you to identify areas that need work by revealing the problems that arise in a more difficult sequence. These can almost always be resolved by returning to a more simple version of the step and working on your basic technique.
