Push your tango a bit further. Tango level 1.5 is a combination of Movement sequences, Tango Vals and Tango Milonga.
Sequences are some of the most common and usable sequences so that you are ready to go out and move with others without having to worry about knowing what to do.
In the Vals / Milonga Classes, you will learn the way to dance to Vals & Milonga.
At a Tango Social event (also called a milonga) the music is divided into 3 types. Tango, Vals, and Milonga (the musical style, not the social event…yes we know its confusing). Although Tango is the majority of the music played the other 2 styles are used every 4 or for tandas (groups of songs)
Tango Vals is a dance in groups of 3 like other valses however, in Tango Vals you will be using your Argentine Tango ideas to make it all happen.
Milonga is where tango started. It is a dance based in groups of 2 and is the ‘fun’ more folk style of tango.
Vals / Milonga is all about the fun, getting involved, and discovering more about tango.
Level 1 Fundamental Tango Classes are all about getting the fundamentals of tango, not as a style but as a language. In this tango class, we look to give you the ability to dance without having to overthink moves. We want you to feel free to feel the dance not to get stuck in steps.
Tango can be so much more than a series of steps. In the Level 1 fundamental classes, we make it easy and fun to learn all that you will need to get out dancing on the social floor.
Tango Melbourne has worked to make a curriculum that have you learning deep technique without ever knowing it.
You will find yourself just enjoying and having fun. Come and start your journey into the life-changing world of Tango!

Open-level fundamentals class 2 pm-3 pm
Please do NOT attend if unwell so that we can keep on dancing.
we will be working under the Independent Creative Learning* guidelines This style of teaching allows for students to learn at their own pace, generally set out by the fastest learners. In an Open tango workshop like this, the student can learn up to 5 advanced combinations of minimum 4 bars of music each.
Within these combinations the student is exposed to the main components of the dance, eg; Giros*, Boleos*, Planeos*, Cortes*, Corridas* etc, and how all these components are placed following or preceding any given movement.
These combinations are taught with music interpretation and positioning in relation to line of dance* in a Milonga* scenario.
