Read here what others say about us "Difficult to put words to the experience...When they dance they never cease to inspire and touch me with their collected intensity, tenderness and grace... Both Sophia and Paul are consumate teachers - breaking down such an art form into tiny precise chunks with such classic style. What is so impressive is how they are spontaneously able to tailor each step to the students present on the night and patiently understand what each of us needs to 'get it'. So it is with huge respect and appreciation that I thank them for all that they share of the spirit, love and intense joy of Tango - and the dedication they have when sharing their skill with us - and for bringing together such a great group of people to dance with. Thank you! It has brought so much into my life!" (Cherry Manfield, Dec 2015, early childhood teacher, film-maker)If you are unable to attend on these dates you can cover the same content through private one to one coaching. You can attend either group or private coaching with or without a partner. Rotation of partners is encouraged but optional. |

Vals and Milonga - 7 week course
Which do you fancy?  or ....  If dances could be compared to drinks - tango would be red wine, vals - champagne and milonga would be tequila! We are excited about exploring these beautiful dances with you and we know it's going to do wonders for your musicality! Further, it's important to know how to dance milonga and vals if you want to dance tango socially as they are always played at milongas (the place). The great thing about learning these dances, if you already know some tango, is that you don't have to learn lots of new moves - you an use what you already know - only in a different way to suit the different rhythms. We will teach you how to apply your existing repertoire to milonga and vals, and you might learn a few new moves as well. Here's more details on these courses which are offered at North Sydney and Bondi. Both venues cover the same content each week - making it possible to swap between them to complete your course. Lesson videos and study notes are provided with the course.
