About Us

The simplest meaning of tango salon  is social tango. We are avid social dancers. And, we have a meticulous approach to teaching the mechanics of the art form - with an emphasis on posture, floorcraft and musicality. In addition to our regular group classes in tango, we offer workshops in classic themes and special topics - such as Milonga
(a festive rhythm in the family of Argentine tango), Tango Techniques, Canyengue
(a vintage expression of Argentine tango), Tango Doble Frente, and Embellishments.
We have been guest teachers in:
Augusta, Columbus, Macon, and Milledgeville, GA
Nashville and Knoxville, TN
Charlotte, NC
Auburn and Montgomery, AL
New Orleans, LA
Jensen Beach, FL
Newport Beach, CA
Kauai and Big Island, HI
We host a social dance party, also referred to as a milonga, every second Saturday of the month. It is an opportunity for local and visiting tangueros to come together to share their joy of tango. And, it is an excellent opportunity for newcomers to socialize and view this beautiful dance - to witness a range of styles that manifest the individuality afforded by tango.
As performers, we extend our social dancing to fit the setting and event - visually communicating the intimacy of the partnership and richness of the music - often with larger and more complex movements than the social dance setting permits.
