Tango for everybody

The world's best tango dancers did not all have a background in dance. Unlike other forms of dance, Tango can be danced to a high level at any age or fitness level because its essence lies in human connection and self-expression.

At Oxford Tango Academy, we encourage students to find their voice by following a comprehensive method adaptable to all.

I started Tango classes with Dante and Lilie at the end of November last year. The classes were well organised; some experienced dancers were brought in to help which made a real difference. From Beginners it’s possible to progress to an Improvers class, also on a Monday which is excellent. Lilie organises Practicas on Tuesdays, sometimes Fridays which gives a good opportunity to practice and socialise with tea and cake. Dante and Lilie are excellent teachers, also lovely people. I would highly recommend their classes.
