**** REQUIREMENTS ****

The program will run with a minimum of 6 beginner full program participants and 6 intermediate full program participants.

Full participation means you are able to attend all group classes, are able to schedule a private lesson during those 2 weeks, and attend the practicas and milongas. Ideally you can also participate in the extended social gatherings that will take place during those 2 weeks. *Please talk to me if you would like to participate but know you may have to miss one or 2 activities.

Drop-ins will be welcome if there is space.

I highly encourage making a commitment to the whole program if possible. In my experience the best way to make progress with your dancing goals is through frequency. That means getting on the dance floor and getting into that tango embrace as often as possible, every day if you can. This is where you can really see the benefits. Try it for 2 weeks. That is the challenge!
​
EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO PARTICIPATE - ALL THAT IS REQUIRED IS YOUR OPEN MIND AND ENTHUSIASM FOR LEARNING AND WORKING WITH A GROUP!
