After teaching Tango for many years now, I have developed this special program for beginners wishing to learn Tango. It is a super structured program done as semi privates- maximum 4 couples, with very targeted goals. The focus of this blog and our Company is health, fitness and dance. We continue to develop ourselves in these areas and want to spread this joy to everyone.
The Quintessential 4 month tango challenge has:
- A class of 2 hours every week with systematically designed program modules.
- Support of tango community
- Goal oriented, group performance batch after 4 months.

FAQ's
Do I need a partner to join?
You may join with or without a partner. Many people join individually and they partner up in class. One of the things you learn as a part of the course is how to invite someone for a dance. We will start you from basics. We switch partners in the class. However, if you want to stick to the partner whom you have signed up with, please speak to the instructor in the beginning.
What if I miss few classes?
We expect you to be regular for classes. However, if you do miss lessons, try to compensate by coming earlier next time and speaking to your instructor and team mates. Everyone is willing to help. Tango is a journey that you should enjoy.
When can I dance in a milonga?
We will encourage you to come to milonga very soon. If you are not able to dance, you will learn a thing or two by watching and meeting people. However, there is not teaching in a milonga. You should observe and be willing to participate.
How is a challenge more beneficial than a group class?
In a challenge we have more customised and individualised approach of semi privates. It is a structured course at the end of which we have tango recital for which you are prepared. This is beautiful way to integrate you into tango community of more experienced dancers.
