Lessons are a great way to get you up and running with the basic steps in Tango. From there, the sky is the limit!

Learn all about ochos, piruletes, corte en cuatro, caminata and many others... and if you are interested, you can get a sense of the historic development of Tango.. it's origins and the interesting cultural mix that later developed into this amazing dance style across the globe. You can see some of those styles & steps at the CTC video gallery. Tango lessons can be arranged on a group and on a one to one basis. The group Tango lessons are held every Friday at Stompin's Dance Studio at the Quadrant Mall in Launceston [Stompin's map] as follows::

Another alternative is to join a weekend workshop in Launceston, Hobart or Burnie. For the Burnie lessons, please visit the NW Tango website or feel free to contact the group coordinator directly. In Hobart, classes are held at the Australian-Italian club on 77 Federal Street, North Hobart. For more information, please visit the Tasmanian Club de Tango in Hobart.

In Launceston we value the input, techniques and knowledge of more experienced Tango dancers so we have interesting Tango related activities including: social milongas, practicas, classes and workshops on an ongoing basis. Stay tune to our news and events section.

If your life commitments don't allow much flexibility, you can also learn and practice Tango by following one of the three levels of instructional videos available here at the CTC! The videos range from beginners level, intermediate level, and up to to the more advance dancer. You can learn from the scratch or polish your style by watching and exercising by repetition.

All steps are easy to learn as they are performed in slow motion with Spanish-speaking as well as English-speaking instructors. The DVD's include tango steps, basic concepts, Tango choreographies, and many more Tango related videos!
