6 Saturdays from 7 August to 11 September, 22 Webb Street, Wellington

This is a course designed for people who want to get a taste of the enjoyment of dancing tango, to get you started on the right foot ;-) and to be well connected ;-) It is suitable for those of you who are either starting new or afresh with tango or who have been dancing for less than say 6 months. $70 for the course or $15 per class. The Practice session that overlaps the class is free for course participants.

Intermediate Tango: 5 Saturdays 2:30 - 4:00 PM (except August 21!),  

This is a course designed for people who have danced tango before and will cover a wide range of skills to help make the dance most enjoyable. The emphasis is on understanding technique and principals that make the dance work for a variety of situations. $80 for course or $20 per class. The Practice session and Beginners course are free for course participants.

Practice Session: Every Saturday 4:30-7:00 PM

$8 unless you have done one of the courses that day. This is a relaxed practice space: a chance to reinforce what you have learnt; an essential stepping-stone between learning new things and using them instinctively in a dance. Ask questions, stop and start, or simply dance. People at all levels drop in and they will help if asked.
