Tango Touch is Melbourne’s newest Argentine Tango school, ready to equip you with a unique language of dance to connect and converse in a whole new way.
We are targeting beginners currently but can accommodate intermediates if they turn up!
We start at 7 pm to add a half hour of value to our classes. We will work on the tango technique: walking, contra-body, pivoting, circularity and building as we go!
Biomechanical integrity in bodily structure and movement is foundational to internal somatic flow and well-being. With this as our fundamental intention, let’s refine and find nuance and finesse in our way of ‘being-in-body’.
