What is the registration process?
What are all the dance forms you teach?
We specialize primarily in Tango, as we are a Tango Dance Academy.
ย
Beginners start with a three-month course that introduces the fundamentals of four partner dance styles: Tango, Dominican Bachata, Salsa, and Merengue.
ย
ย
Even if you have attended classes or workshops for some of these dance styles elsewhere, we recommend starting with this course.ย
What is Tango?
Tango is a dance of connection and improvisation, where partners move in harmony to create a unique story with every embrace.
Originating in Buenos Aires, it blends cultural influences with deep emotional expression. With no fixed patterns, it is a conversation of movement, guided by music and mutual understanding – a true dance of the heart.
Can I attend a trial class before enrolling?
Yes, you can! Join one of our introductory workshops before the new batch begins to get a glimpse of Tango. Alternatively, you can register for a session in our ongoing batch and experience the magic of Tango firsthand.
Details about upcoming classes can be found here.
Do I require prior experience in dancing?
Not at all! Most of our students start with no prior dance experience, so there is no need to worry.
Our instructorโs innovative teaching methods make learning smooth and enjoyable. You can confidently start from scratch with our well-structured, beginner-friendly classes.
I don't have a dance partner. Is it possible to join alone?
Absolutely! While bringing a partner is encouraged, it is not mandatory. We do recommend that single participants register early, as we limit individual registrations to maintain balance in class. However, while we strive to achieve a balanced ratio, this cannot always be guaranteed.
In class, we rotate partners so everyone gets the chance to dance and explore their preferred role (lead or follow), irrespective of gender. If you prefer to dance exclusively with your own partner, thatโs perfectly fine too.
Our registration process is fully automated. Please add your email address to the waiting list on the product listing page for your desired workshop or batch. You will be notified automatically when spots open up. Be sure to act quickly, as receiving a notification doesnโt guarantee a spot.
ย
Note: For single male participants, this is the only way to secure a spot.
Is pre-registration required?
To maintain a balanced number of leaders and followers in our classes, pre-registration is required. Single participants must register at least two weeks before the batch starts to give us enough time to ensure an even ratio. For single men, this time is four weeks.
ย
We will limit single registrations to maintain balance.
Is there an age limit?
What do I wear to class?
No specific dance wear or shoes are required to start these classes.
Simply wear comfortable clothes. Any smooth-soled, narrow shoes, socks, or even jazz shoes will work perfectly.
If you prefer wearing shoes during the session, please ensure they are clean and change into them after arriving at the studio.
Why start with four dance styles? I donโt want to be confused. I have already learned one dance form and want to focus on one.
For a holistic and comprehensive learning experience, establishing a foundational base in partner dancing is essential. This foundation is common across all partner dance styles.
Even if you have attended classes or workshops for some of these dance styles elsewhere, we recommend starting with this course. Our instructorโs unique and innovative teaching method simplifies learning recurring steps, ensuring fast and effective mastery in one go.
Concerned about juggling multiple dance styles?
You donโt need to worry โ they complement and reinforce one another.
For instance, a technique learned in one style might initially seem challenging, but insights gained from another dance could make it click. There is a significant overlap in steps and techniques, with plenty of cross-pollination among the styles.
While the application of movements varies depending on the rhythm, certain dances can help build confidence, enhance body awareness, and improve alignment. It also makes music, beats, and rhythms more accessible.
Ultimately, this course provides you with a well-rounded foundation, enabling holistic learning and preparing you to specialize in any of these dance forms later.
After finishing this 3-month course, you can join improvers classes focused on specific dance styles to deepen your learning and skills.

How frequently do batches start?
New batches begin every three months.
Introductory workshops are held one to two weeks prior to the start of a batch, providing an opportunity to try Tango before enrolling.
ย
You can find detailed information about upcoming batches here.
Can I join a batch after it has started?
What if I miss a class?
If you miss a class, please note that refunds (full or partial) or compensation, such as extended classes, are not provided. However, you have several options to make up for missed classes:
- Review the content of the previous class at the beginning of the next session.
- Attend one class at another venue during your subscription period, subject to availability.
- Seek assistance from senior dancers, who are always available to help you catch up.
- Consider opting for the “All-inclusive Improvers Subscription” once you complete your beginner’s course. This pass allows you to revisit the beginner’s course while attending your improvers’ class, making it a great way to revise the entire batch.
- If you miss more than three classes, we encourage booking a one-on-one session to review the material and stay on track.
Will I get a certificate at the end of batch?
In the world of tango, mastery is not measured by certificates but by the ability to connect with one’s partner and the music.
The essence of tango cannot be encapsulated by a certificate or a piece of paper.
