New tango series begins September 7!

Argentine tango is a beautiful, passionate, sophisticated dance that anyone can learn! When you take lessons at Tango by the River, you get experienced, fun, and patient instructors who are dedicated to your success! No partner? No problem! We rotate partners in class and help you find a partner. Couples who don't want to rotate in class are never required to. There is no better introduction to Argentine Tango!

We have three levels of classes to get you on your way to dancing Argentine Tango socially. In Level I, you learn the fundamentals of Argentine Tango: the basic elements of the tango walk (caminada) and introduction of basic steps, emphasizing posture, leading and following skills, and interpreting the music. Level II focuses on pivots and turns, and how to apply all steps learned so far into the social setting. Level III changes every month but always focuses on technique, musicality, and steps appropriate to the social milonga.

Cost is $50 per person or $90 per couple for the month.

Level I - Tuesdays, 6:30-7:30 p.m.

Level II - Tuesdays, 7:30-8:30 p.m.

Level III - Tuesdays, 8:30-9:30 p.m.

These classes frequently fill so we strongly recommend pre-registration to ensure your place in class! Click below to sign up and ensure your space!

Argentine tango is a beautiful, passionate dance, and it is our pleasure and honor to share with you a dance we love so much. Join us!
