Beginners Courses

These Beginners Tango Foundation courses [TF1 and TF2] are especially structured to provide a background to the foundation principles to dance tango, incorporating the Tango Lessons Syllabus.

TF1 and TF2 are taught throughout the year, the start dates coincide with the Tango Festival programme in Wellington: 

2018   NZ Tango Festival - June Wellington

You will be taught the foundation elements of posture, balance, your vertical and horizontal axis, and how to lead/follow in the dance. Steps, movements and how to combine these into a tango dance are introduced during both of these 6 week courses. We recommend both, and they are a pre-requisite to taking the following courses T1 and T2.
