Tango is a social dance originating from Argentina which emphasizes improvisation and a strong connection between leader & follower.

This series will teach students the basic elements of tango -- the embrace, walking in and switching between parallel & alternate systems, amagues or rock steps, the cruzada, ochos or crosses, ocho cortado or cut ocho, stepping in double time and the basics of navigating the floor, as well as introduce the possibilities that come about from combining these elements and interpreting the music.

This class is designed for complete beginners, no dance experience or partner necessary!
