Immersion Workshops

Periodically, Rusty and I offer weekend immersion workshops at our home studio here in Tucson, AZ. We have found that a more intense immersion process is helpful in the learning process. Being immersed in Argentine Tango over a weekend results in the integration of concepts and techniques. Your body begins to adopt the muscle memory it needs to dance confidently and competently with your partner and the music.

Our immersion workshops usually consist of 2 days of a related topic for a total of four 1.5 hour Argentine Tango classes:

  • Introduction to Argentine Tango
  • Beyond the Basics
  • Milonga for Beginners
  • Milonga Beyond the Basics
  • Vals 1-2-3
  • Vals Beyond the Basics
  • Intermediate Figuras and Musicality
  • Advancing your Milongas
  • Creativity for your Vals
  • Advanced Concepts and Techniques
  • These workshops are kept small and intimate to nurture a higher degree of one-on-one attention between students and instructors and to lay the foundations for social interactions and growth amongst the group. The group you learn with become your home dance community out in the world.
