Thanks to Ken's special teaching methods, you'll learn to improvise from the very beginning. After completing the first level lesson, you'll be ready to enjoy a Sunday night milonga (Argentine tango dance party). NOTE: special support for beginners at parties. Ken is always available to help and support you.

Requirments: Desire to have fun

 

CLOSE EMBRACE Technique
(A continuation of Level 1) -- working on the tango foundation. Emphasis will be on turning basics and the 8 count turning method, right and left.

Requirments: 3 to 6 months of Level I.

 

OPEN EMBRACE
Focus in this class: beautiful, intricate, spectaular, and extremely romantic tango steps. This is a chance to do the fun steps that you usually you don't get to study. Level III will have a wide range of vocabulary from intricate, close embrace steps to wild and crazy, performance steps -- and everything inbetween.

Requirements: a good foundation and an audition is required to get into the class.
