Clips from Atlanta Tango Workshops and Performances

Atlanta Tango

Argentine tango is most often known outside Argentina as a dance performed on stage or in a movie. But what most people in the United States don’t know is that it is a mainly social dance, and an experience that often can be transcendent. Look at the faces of those people dancing in the photos. They are in a bubble, floating together in their own dreams. Tango can take you there.

Atlanta Tango offers the experience of tango as it is danced in Buenos Aires and the best festivals in the United States. Our goal is to put students on the social dance floor in the shortest possible time—so you, too, can find your own bubble.

We teach the close embrace style of tango, also known as milonguero or apilado, which predominates in the crowded clubs of central Buenos Aires. Unlike the performance version of tango, the social dance is entirely improvised. The close embrace style emphasizes the connection between partners and musicality and uses a rich and subtle body language. Come learn this beautiful and passionate dance!
