Tango
Downtown
offers classes in The Essentials of Argentine Tango, technique
classes for all experience levels, incorporating insights into the music,
dance, and etiquette of Milonguero Style social dancing.
Traditional Argentine Tango music is intrinsic to the dance — our goal for our students is that they quickly become enamoured with the music and comfortable with the conventions of this beautiful dance, then join us on the dance floor!
Classes
are held Monday evenings in the Theater Studio at the
Harwood Art Center, 1114 7th
Street NW (at Mountain Road), in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Entrance is
by the northside parking lot basement stairs.
