Argentine Tango has been described as "the most sensual of partner dances." It is characterized by a close embrace and strong "lead and follow" technique. Because of the nature of the dance, please sign up as couples. If you do not have a partner, we will attempt to match you up if you call in advance. To register or to obtain more information, call Judith at (859) 252-0012.

Work Sessions

Dates: Sundays: November 2, 2008.
Time: 4:00 to 5:15 pm.
Place: Studio 3B, ArtsPlace
Instructors: None
Cost: $3 per person.

Work Sessions give you a chance to work on your technique with your partner in a studio environment. Ask for feedback from fellow dancers, or just do your own thing. This is not a milonga.

Argentine Tango Practice

Informal practice sessions are held every Wednesday night 8 - 10 p.m. at ArtsPlace. Free for first time or out-of-town dancers; regular dancers pay $10 for 4 sessions. For more information on this and other tango activities, call Judith at (859) 252-0012 or e-mail rongariepy@gmail.com
