Explore Argentine Tango in a progressive, welcoming class series that strengthens technique, refines posture, and cultivates graceful footwork.

The series is suitable for complete beginners as well as experienced dancers looking to grow their skills and comfort on the social floor. Wear comfortable clothing; specialized tango shoes are not required. Dance socks, jazz shoes, or ballet shoes are recommended, and because the dance is shared in close embrace, good hygiene is important. Classes take place at Riverside Ballet Arts Dance School inside the Platt College Building.
