Tuesday is September 1st! And that’s when the private lessons for individual dancers start. We have most of you back on schedule. Some of you for a little bit later as you are taking the precautions - 100% understandable. All in person lessons are with Hernan - we are taking it slowly too. I will be adding my schedule back in October - but you can start emailing about that if you want to keep your old spot or add new time.
You guys keep calling about groups, but we do not have a good feeling about them quite yet. We trying to figure out the safest way to be able to hold them. But here is bad news for all of you who do not have partners. We are sorry but we are not be able to match you up with anybody. With COVID we simply cannot take that kind of responsibility. Please do feel free to email and ask for recommendation, I will contact you will person/people who shall be best for you level wise, but then it is all on you how you will arrange it.
Private Lessons for individual dancers start September 1st
PLEASE EMAIL TO SCHEDULE
Rules are a little bit more strict for Individual Dancers!
The lessons are scheduled 30 minutes apart to allow the time for studio disinfection and Maestro’s shower plus change of clothes.
If you had never took any lessons from us - at this time WE ARE NOT ABLE to accept new students. We want to keep our existing students safe and thus are unable to accept anyone new for in person lessons. Zoom Virtual lessons are available.
Only one lesson at a time. Meaning - if you are a couple, but usually you were taking lessons with Anita while your Follower was taking lesson with Hernan - or the other way around - at this time this is NOT possible.
Masks are required the moment you enter Ultimate Tango space and during duration of the whole lesson. If you forget your masks we will have masks available for $25/each.
If you coming straight from work, any meeting, shopping etc, please do change your clothes before coming to Tango in Close Embrace.
Your temperature will be taken upon entry with contactless thermometer.
Please remain in your car until we call you that the space (and we) are ready to receive you.
Please do not come late, we will have to excuse you out once your scheduled time is over, so we have time to follow the procedures…
Please do not come early… Same as above…
Only water allowed. No other food or drinks permitted.
Try to limit the amount of stuff you are bringing. Unfortunately we will have to dispose of everything that you forget.
READY TO SCHEDULE? Email us now!

VIRTUAL Beginner COURSE
*** EXCELLENT INTRO FOR ALL NEW COMERS
***EXCELLENT REVIEW FOR YOU!
***BUY TO KEEP IT FOREVER OR RENT FOR 3 MONTHS
This course is built exactly as our real life Beginner Course. It consists of 8 lessons in which phase by phase we show you all you need to know and so, you can practice everything at your own pace. You can also stop and rewind to hear better or to understand better. There is also 2 of us demonstrating the sequences whereas in real life class - only one of us is teaching.
This course is an excellent introduction to Argentine Tango. Clear, well-structured, progressive. It can serve as a compliment to the real life course as it gives you all the information and all the exercises in order.
