Tango classes in Sherman Oaks
By: Charise Mitchell
Alright, Tango is fun, but let’s admit to the real reason we Tango. It’s sexy, plain and simple. We go to a Tango class with just a glimmer of hope that inside the studio we will come in contact with our prince charming. Anyhow, if you want to learn how to Tango, or just want to chase fate for a few nights, check out the Tango Room Dance Center in Sherman Oaks. It’s a 6 week, introductory course to Argentine Tango for people who are absolute beginners.
Each Tuesday (or Sunday afternoon) you will learn fundamental elements central to becoming the hottest Tango machine in town. You’ll learn the Tango Walk, the basic 8 count step, a simple turn in the line of dance, how to dance in close embrace, codes of social Tango and basic musicality. In total, you’ll receive 6 hours of instruction which you can redeem on Tuesday evenings, on two Sunday afternoons or a combination.
The best part? After you’ve completed the course, you can always retake it at no cost if you want to refresh yourself.
I’ve taken the class and it’s a blast. I highly recommend trying it.
