Our unique approach

With us, you know where you are going: we have a yearly plan and each class follows a well-defined structure. This is a unique methodology developed through years of teaching that our tango students will only find at Tanguito.

	The year at Tanguito – We organise our academic year around Tango Dimensions™, a framework we developed to make concepts easy to understand and help you find your own style of dancing. You can join our classes at any time, as we cover fundamental technique in every class. To develop a strong understanding of all Dimensions, we recommend you attend classes regularly.

Oct. 15 to Nov. 30: Interactions Try lower body interactions: entradas, sacadas, ganchos, enganches… December: Size Vary the size of your moves to interpret the music. January to Feb. 14: Embrace Build a comfortable, flexible embrace and enhance the connection with your partner. Feb. 15 to March 30: Speed Match the speed of your moves to the music for more playfulness. April: Immersion Up your milonga creds by mastering floorcraft tricks and steps from old school milongueros. May: Axis Explore out of axis steps: stumbles, pasadas, volcadas, colgadas… June: Energy From demure to passionate, use different energies to add another layer of expression to your dancing. July: Height Play with changes of height to add more depth to your dancing. August: school trip to Buenos Aires. To check this month’s detailed schedule, have a look at our “news” page. Please note we might tweak the schedule based on student progression.
	Each class at Tanguito – We plan each class carefully so that you develop the skills necessary to become a great dancer and enjoy social dancing: build your repertoire of steps, strengthen your technique and develop your musicality. We also cover tango culture and history.	Read more > × Each class at Tanguito A diverse repertoire of steps is the key to self expression. It’s about knowing what moves you can do. Executing steps with precision and fluidity is what sets good dancers apart. Understand how to do moves. Last, and most important, the music is what inspires movement. Musicality is about when to do moves.
	Your journey with us – Learning tango is not only about tango classes. Supporting you every step of the way (literally!) is the best approach for you to polish your tango self and progress quickly. You can also review your progress with regular assessments.	Read more > × Our educational tools Private tuition: Ease your way into tango with a private class (or two!)
