Here are 4 (of many) great reasons why you should take up tango:

YOU CAN LEAVE THE ROSE AT HOME

If you’re not into flamboyant body gestures, the good news is - you don't have to be flashy in Tango… ever. Musicality, (feeling the music) and connection, (body awareness, presence & attention to your partner) are the most desirable traits in a tango dancer.

TANGO IS TAILORED TO YOUR BRAIN

Are you strictly a pragmatist, or is your thinking process more abstract? Do you prefer structure, or are you creative? Are you the type who likes to plan, or are you more spontaneous? Whether you approach tango from an artistic or technical perspective, the dance will intrigue you no matter how your brain is wired. You don’t have to be a certain “type” in order to be good at tango.

TANGO IS TAILORED TO YOUR BODY

Since there are so many aspects to tango, you’ll find that on various occasions, your body type – no matter what it is – will give you an advantage.

TANGO LETS YOU BE YOURSELF

If you’re an extravert, you’ll appreciate the social aspect of tango: being around other fun tango aficionados, and getting to meet lots of new people. By contrast, if you’re an introvert, tango gives you a chance to tune out all the background noise, and connect one-on-one with someone. Loud or quiet, the dance suits your personality as is.

"To the unfamiliar, Argentine Tango has a reputation for being exotic, difficult, and inaccessible. But in reality, learning to dance Tango is a lot like studying a new language or learning to play a new instrument. It’s an unhurried, intriguing experience that invites you to a deeply personal journey of artistic expression and self discovery."
