OUR CLASSES
ARGENTINE TANGO OF ALL LEVELS
Our tango studio is one of the largest and most well-established in North America. We offer classes of all levels all year round!
Classes are given in a progressive manner; material is reviewed and built upon each week so that each student can progress, build confidence and feel that they are really improving.
Every two months new series of all different levels begin, so it’s really never too long before a new class starts up! Our teachers also offer a huge variety of specialised mini-sessions for intermediate and advanced level dancers (series that are 2-6 classes long) that explore different styles and themes, or particular advanced steps and figures.
• Class sizes are limited
• Beautiful large studios
• Two teachers per class
• Free supervised practice sessions are included
• Classes are taught in both English and French.
• Reservations & payments must be done in advance.
• Students must refrain from attending if they are unwell or have flu/cold symptoms*
* Dancing in close proximity to others can increase the risk of transmission of respiratory illnesses. We continue to receive messages each week from students notifying us that they will be absent because of positive covid tests or because of cold/flu symptoms. We do supply masks for those who wish to use them.
Registrations are open!

Looking for a new challenge?
Enrich your dance by learning to lead. Rediscover the joy of learning something new (yet familiar!) in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
When Melina discovered how much learning the other role enriched her own dancing (as well as how much she enjoyed it!), she created a series of workshops called "Take the Lead." Over the past seven years, her "Take the Lead" courses have gained tremendous popularity in both Canada and the U.S.
For intermediate and advanced followers (prerequisite: Tango 3).
Already lead a little? You can join anytime! Never led before? Start with the first class, or take a short private lesson with Melina to learn a few basics before joining the group.
Pay per class 32$, or save with a 4 or 8-class card.
4 classes = 123$ , 8 classes = 228$
