Tango is a dance you can start quickly and easily. It all starts with walking and connecting with your partner and the music.
From there, if you get "hooked" you can enjoy a long time of learning intricacies and enjoying your dance more and more.
Here's some thoughts for followers on Getting Tango Shoes.
If you want to get started, try one of these regular events:
Tango Connections Classes with Lori & Patrick
These classes usually run in a six week series.
It's best to start at the beginning of a series if you can.
