Workshops
Our workshops will focus in on specific areas in Tango, Milonga, Vals or technique.
Workshops last between 1 hour 15 and 1.5 hours and are a great opportunity to really delve into specific aspects of leading, following and musicality of particular movements in detail. We combine the sequence with helpful exercises to improve quality of movement and confidence in leading and following. Workshops will be followed by a milonga or practica.
We teach across the UK and in Europe.

Teacher Training
Performance Oriented Private Lessons
For many years, we have appreciated the dedication and expertise of Richard and Tamsyn as tango teachers. We regularly attend their festivals in the UK as they continue to innovate and push the boundaries for all levels of dancers. Richard and Tamsyn epitomise the best techniques and cultural appreciation of Argentine tango in their lessons. Tango is not an easy dance; it requires dedication and practice. We can recommend this couple who will make your tango journey fun and exciting. Every step is an investment in Tango, one you don’t want to miss.
Our Teaching Approach
Richard has taught Argentine Tango in the UK for 25 years, initially teaching classes in London, that were fondly referred to by students as ‘the only advanced tango classes in London’.

class structure
We encourage dancers to switch partners as this really builds confidence for everyone and prepares you for social dance. However, we also respect that some couples prefer to dance only together, which is also perfectly fine 😊 Our classes are 1 hour long, with either 30 minutes or 15 minutes práctica. Please see regular weekly classes for further information. Workshops tend to be 1 hour 15 minutes, or 1.5 hours.
Events
Private Events
For private events such as parties, weddings or other celebrations, Argentine Tango performances can break up the evening and surprise your family and friends.
Whatever the celebration, we are happy to cater to your needs. We can perform to specific tango music, or choreograph and perform to music of your choice, should this be preferred.
