"M" for "Milonguero" and "S" for "Salon"

Our “M” & “S” courses are designed in a way that you can start with either, and this is because they cover the same or similar topics, but we explore the topics with different sequences and concepts. (this goes for all the levels: Tango 100-400)

 

The Milonguero course focuses on the social-dancing aspects of the dance, being able to keep movements compact and fluid on a crowded dance floor, while maintaining a comfortable embrace.

The Salon course focuses more on body mechanics and movements that require a bit more space, and how to maintain the flexibility in the embrace required for different movements. 

For Members:

  • No☺️ Please sign in for all classes and practicas that you’re planning to attend, and cancel if you can’t make it. This way you help us to keep track of the role balance in each class, so that everyone has a partner to dance with!

    Best way is to book recurring classes on your computer, and then you can manage your attendance on the LATA app.

    1. First thing you’ll want to do when a new semester starts is booking yourself into all of the classes and practicas that you are planning to attend. This lets us know you’ll be coming to class.

    2. You can log yourself into the entire semester in advance, simply cancel when you can’t make a specific class.

    3. Make sure you’re logged in to your account when you are managing your attendance.

  • At the end of the first series, (week 4) students will be given a Self Assessment Worksheet to help guide, organize and track their individual progress on the material covered in class.

    Each semester, there will be 2 video assessments, where you will dance with and receive feedback from one of the instructors. Learn More >>>

  • When you sign up for a Tango 100 membership, you have access to all classes at the 100 level.

    We recommend attending as many classes as your schedule allows, but you will only be assessed on one course per semester. If you take multiple courses, make sure to give a special commitment to one of them to be prepared for your assessments.

    The material in each course is very dense and most students take each course several times.

  • If you need to miss a class for some reason, it is your responsibility to get caught up on the material covered:

    • You can watch our class summaries to make sure you’re not falling behind on new materials. We post a video summary after each class that you can access anytime from the LATA app.

    • Your membership also includes practice time every Saturday and this is a great time to ask questions and get caught up on the sequences you’re working on.

    • In addition, we encourage you to take notes on the material covered in class, as well as the feedback you receive personally.

  • Yes. The information in each course is very dense and is meant to be taken several times.

    Once you graduate to the next level, any previously completed program is complimentary with an active membership. This way, the further you get in the curriculum, the more classes you get with your membership.

    So, if there is a course you want to review, or you want to learn the 'other' role - just sign in for class and show up. In the event that the role balance is off, you may be asked to help keep the class role-balanced.
