Tango Challenge with Leonel

TANGO CHALLENGE

Progression, Not Perfection

Are you ready to take your tango to the next level? The Tango Challenge is a unique workshop designed to refine your fundamentals and elevate your dance technique. Whether it’s walking with confidence, mastering turns, embracing the pause, or deepening your musicality, this workshop will help you build a solid foundation for improvising with ease in social dancing.

Guided by Leonel, we’ll explore the beauty of tango together, working on precision, expression, and connection. The goal?

Dance with clarity, fluidity, and confidence—both as individuals and as a community. When we improve ourselves, we uplift those around us. Let’s inspire and be inspired, pushing past our fears and embracing the limitless possibilities of our dance.

This challenge is about growth, not perfection. I’ll push you, but more importantly, I hope to inspire you—just as I was inspired by the incredible maestros Gabriel Angio and Natalia Games, as well as the vibrant tango community and DJs I encountered in Korea.

Join us every Monday, starting February 3rd, from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM.

Admission: $35 (Cash & card payments accepted)

Location: The Aegean, 19 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy 3065

Let’s take that extra step together—because the difference between ordinary and extraordinary is going that EXTRA mile.

Are you up for the challenge? Let’s dance!
