Dance Tango

We received intensive training by some of the greatest Maestros of Argentine Tango. 

To name only a few, Gachi Fernandez and Sergio Cortazzo, Fernanda Ghi and Guillermo Merlo, Milena Plebs, Oswaldo Zotto, Pablo Varon and many more. 

Private classes for one person or a couple is $100 an hour plus studio fee. This includes two teachers so both sides of the partner dance can be shown in action. 

For the first class, we often offer a huge discount and we occasionally offer series of private classes at a discounted price too. 

It is always best to inquire as you may be lucky and get in at a special deal. 

We were heavily sollicited by other Tango dancers who got inspired by our dancing skills. 

We then decided to offer Argentine Tango to the Inland Empire since no classes for this dance were offered in this area. 

Argentine Tango is growing worldwide and we are proud to contribute, however modestly to this expansion. After all, Argentine Tango is much more than just a dance from another country: It has been declared part of the world's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the United Nations in 2009.

All kind of students have crossed our path: 

Some very young, some much more advanced in age (one gentleman was 87 year old  when he started to learn Argentine Tango with us);

Some students come with dancing background; many make Argentine Tango their first dance.

Some claim to have two left feet and yet they discover, with us, that Argentine Tango is open to all, including them. 

Some of our students are intent on becoming proficient at this art and maybe even become professionals while others aim at just becoming decent social dancers. 

We had students from many different nationalites (indlucing Argentineans) and ethnicity as Argentine Tango transcends all barriers. 

We taught a move to one of our students. The following lesson, he came back to us with a gazillion questions. It was wonderful because the questions he had, went right to the core of the dance.

Answering him and showing him what we meant gave him so many "Eureka" moments in this one class that it surpassed what some people experience in a year of lessons. 

For an instructor, there is nothing more satisfying that witnessing the growth of a student. To see this one person leaping forward so fast in his understanding of what Argentine Tango can do and give him was just exhilarating - on both sides. 

1. Make sure that their specialty is Argentine Tango and not something else. Many dance teachers have added Argentine Tango to their list of skills because Argentine Tango has become popular in recent years and should therefore be represented by anyone who teached ballroom. However Argentine Tango is very distinct from any other partner dance and should be taught differently too.  

2. Ask them how often they go and dance in Milongas. They should know what a milonga is and if they truly love Argentine Tango and actually know to dance it socially, they should go and dance it at least once a week in such a place. 

3. Ask them to give you the name and location of a few milongas in Southern California. 

4. Ask them what type of Argentine Tango they teach: listen to their answer and ask them the difference between the Piava Style and the Porteno style. 

1. Can you prepare me to become a good to excellent social dancer? 

2. Will you give me the tools to be able to dance Argentine Tango with anyone - even if you plan to dance exclusively with your partner, the answer should be "Yes" or else you won't be introduced to what makes Argentine Tango so unique and magical.
