Open Tango Workshops

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.

TangoMelbourne – Tango 1 & 1.5

Tango beginner classes – Tango 1

Dancing Tango can be taught in a way that makes you fail over and over again. Tango Melbourne beginner classes will get you to do things within moments that you never thought possible. We love the dance and with our passion and your joy, we will get you out and dancing socially within weeks.

Tango Level 1.5

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 it’s 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.

Tango 1 – time 7 – 8 pm

Tango 1.5 – time 6 – 7 pm

Entry via Kerr St

Free on street parking.

The 86 tram stops just outside the venue.

TangoMelbourne – Tango 3

Go beyond the fundamentals and push your art and expression in tango.

Level 3 Tango Classes are all about going beyond the steps and focusing on how to create feelings and effects through the tango technique.

 (teachers approval is needed for entry to this level)

At Tango Melbourne, we place dancing at the top of the pile. Often, schools talk about what is right and wrong. We like to teach what is possible and let you choose how to use our tools.

Tango Melbourne Level 3 classes explore the feelings of dancing and give you the tools to express yourself in tango dance.

Come and grow your tango and experience the highest level of improvised partner dance.
