Friendly Argentine tango classes in central Cambridge with Savio and Katriona

New 6 week course for absolute beginners starts Wednesday 15th January 2025

Our 6 week tango course for absolute beginners takes you from your first steps to leading or following classic Argentine tango sequences such as the forward ocho, the cross step and the ocho cortado.

We assume no dance knowledge whatsoever. You will be in great company with other beginners. And while we take our dancing seriously, we make our classes fun.

Give the gift of tango!

FAQs

What shall I wear?

Anything you feel comfortable in and can move in. There's no need to dress any particular way.

What shoes shall I wear?

If you have them, wear shoes that you can pivot in - i.e., shoes that don't grip to a wooden floor. Leather soled shoes are ideal. For more information about shoes take a look at this blog post: What shoes should I get for tango?

I've danced a bit of tango already. Is this the right course for me?
