Tango has many expressions, emotions and    shapes. Tango influences other dances and arts and vice versa. It flows as a river and changes and develops. The moment captured in dance today, will be different tomorrow. It is all about improvisation and being here and now with all your heart and passion for the very moment in dance.

We love and welcome all types and colors of tango – tango classico and tango nuevo as well as such modern expressions of dance as tango kizomba, tango bachata and tango salsa. Come and discover your color of tango!
