Sunday 29/12 is Bruno’s birthday milonga and Dario & Rocio’s UK Debut! For the first time since Tanguito started, we are not only open at the end of the year but the last Sunday of the year falls on Bruno’s birthday!So we would like to invite you to celebrate his birthday in an afternoon of tango. There will be the usual classes at 2pm and 3pm, for all of you who aren’t away during the Xmas season, and the milonga only playing the most danceable tunes. There will be a birthday cake, some drinks and the most lovely atmosphere for all to enjoy amongst friends.

To make things truly festive we are introducing today Dario Cieri and Rocio de la Torre, two exceptional young artists from Buenos Aires who are quickly gaining recognition in the heart of the tango world: don’t miss the chance to learn from these rising stars. They will give the Intermediate & up masterclass and perform later in the afternoon.

  • No need to bring a partner.

Our approach to teaching

We teach with an original technique using modern tools to produce happy, shiny, dancy people. Our group and private lessons are fun, relaxed and structured to make you progress quickly, regardless of your previous dance experience. Ultimately, we want you to become great to watch, and even greater to dance with.

We focus on helping you build your own sequences of steps, so that you learn to dance to the music and develop your tango ‘self’ inside out:

  • Self awareness: couple dancing starts with both partners having a good awareness of their own body positioning. In class, we will solidify your tango technique, including posture and walking.
  • Connection: dancing tango is like having a wordless conversation with your partner. In our intermediate classes, we delve into different embraces and various energies and concepts to establish an efficient and smooth communication with your partner through the art of leading & following.
  • Expression: in class, we study different techniques and energies and help you link steps up together yourself to create your own choreographies. We also hold regular “musicality” classes, where we look at various ways of interpreting the music and varying rhythms. You will soon feel that you are able to “play” with the music. We don’t believe in teaching routines and will instead help you develop your tango creativity.
  • Authenticity: we simply love tango music and history and have been told our passion is contagious. In all our classes, we introduce a new orchestra every 2 months so that you get you used to different rhythms. We also translate songs – it is always a bonus to dance on a song when you understand whether to laugh or to cry. We also give tips about how to best enjoy milongas, these atmospheric tango parties where everything comes together like magic.
  • Space management: We’ll work on developing your spacial awareness to help you dance in tune with the room and easily manage the line of dance. That’s the best way to make you “milonga-ready”!
