Hello! I'm Sophia de Lautour (Alvarez) - the principal instructor of SoTango and a national tango champion. Since 2001 I have helped literally thousands of people in Sydney to learn to dance Argentine Tango. In Sydney I am known as 'a teacher of teachers'.  It makes me so proud that some of my ex-students are now teaching!  

The popularity of Argentine tango as a social dance is certainly growing in Sydney where it is now possible to dance every night, often with a choice of venues. To get a taste of the social form of tango (the style we teach) here's a video of a typical 'Milonga' (tango dance event) in Buenos Aires...

Tango is also popular for performances. Here I dance with my good friend Pavel Wagner...

Feel free to contact me to discuss anything to do with tango.

Until we chat, or meet on the dance floor, have a lovely day!
