What’s happening on the day?
We’ll start by coming together in a shared circle, creating a space to safely open the day and connect with ourselves and with each other before stepping onto the dance floor. From there, the day will unfold through a beautiful mix of technical and somatic work designed to bring balance, presence and technical clarity.

Simple but powerful body-awareness practices to release tension and open up natural movement, preparing the body and mind for the chore of the workshop.

Connect with your playful side by exploring rhythmic decorations and variations, adding personality to your dance and obtaining confident styling options for the dance floor.
9.Somatic Closing & Relaxation
Coming back to the body, integrating everything we’ve learned with breath, stillness, and presence.

FAQ

Do I need a dance partner?

No!! You can come to our classes with or without a dance partner. Argentine Tango is a social dance and we encourage people to change partners throughout the class as we find this is the best way to learn.

I've never danced before, will I be able to cope?

Yes!! Our beginners course is suitable for absolute beginners so no previous dance experience is necessary.

What should I wear?

You should wear comfortable clothing that you can easily move in. For your feet, good fitting shoes that you can pivot and turn in, rubber soles should be avoided as they will stick to the floor and make things difficult for you as well as potentially cause you an injury.

How long will it take me to learn to Tango?

The simple answer to this is it depends… Previous dance experience will likely make things easier, especially if it has been partner dancing, however the technique involved in Argentine Tango is quite different to other forms of dance meaning that sometimes no experience is better as you don’t have habits to unlearn! Staying after class to dance socially in the Milonga will certainly help to speed your development along, as will practice at home. Regardless the teachers at Tango Leeds are on hand to help you with your Tango journey and will work with you to develop at your own pace.

Can I learn both roles?

Yes!! Although we would recommend completing a course in one role before trying the other. There are many benefits to understanding both roles for your dance development, and ladies that wish to lead and men that would like to follow are encouraged
