Late summer, all leisure activities start, and so do new tango classes. Your new hobby!
This year, Baila el Tango is aiming to do something special for the younger generations. We have designed a course that will be fun to participate in.
Our goal is:
It has to be fun
Easy to understand and participate
It has to be social
You do not have to learn a lot of sequences
We expect you will soon have an “aha experience” and surely before end of season
You do not need to speak Danish. Classes will be in English if there is a need
We want you to be equal part of the established tango community from your very beginning.
Why exactly tango?
Tango is not only entertaining. You develop in many areas while dancing.
It activates large parts of the body motorically, including balance.
It stimulates the brain and keeps you sharp.
It creates a social network - often across all traditional barriers.
What if I’m not musical? It often turns out that those who feel this way are actually good at listening to the music and decoding its possibilities, making them fantastic in tango.
Instructors
We have assembled a team of three experienced tango dancers to teach for the rest of the year. The three dancers have different backgrounds and complement each other well, allowing them to teach from multiple perspectives.
It's important to understand the principles of tango from the beginning, where you work with the roles of leader and follower. The instructors are familiar with both roles and can assist in a fun and engaging way. Read more about roles in tango here!
The instructors for the season will be: Gitte Schwartz, Sandra Holm Riggelsen, Ib Westersø.
Why is it easy to start dancing tango, which is recognized as a very advanced dance?
Tango has no patterns you need to learn. With each step, you are inspired by the music and dance the steps you feel. Essentially tango is “walking to the music” and a mix of starting, stopping, moving forward, back, right, or left, spiced up with some special “moves”. Once you have mastered listening to the music it is fun and easy.
There never is any pressure to perform. Simplicity is often the best experience.

We will not waste your time on teaching repetitive fixed routines
Instructors around the world love to tell that tango is an improvised dance with no fixed step combination (So far it is true) and then go on spending plenty of time to make everybody follow the same steps.
We are not going to waste your time teaching steps in some kind of order as it is not tango. Tango is absolutely improvised and adapted to the situation on the dance floor. Learning long sequences are difficult and frustrating for many people and you will very soon learn the hard way, that it is never possible to find space enough on the dance floor for a fixed combination of steps.
We will teach the basic movements
When you can perform some basic movements walking forward, back, start, stop, side step and a pivot you can dance with anybody and it is easy and joyful.
Though - we will be pleased to show more advanced dancing too.
