Spring 2013, Schedule of Classes

Scheduled Classes

Classes are offered weekly through the semester except breaks and holidays. Beginner level is usually taken one semester, with intermediate level starting the following semester. Intermediate level students can attend beginner level as well. Beginner classes are held on Mondays 8 pm to 9:30 pm in the Mechanical Engineering building. Intermediate classes are held on Wednesdays 8 to 10 pm in ME 1052

Practice Times

Intensify your tango experience by attending practicas. If you really want to improve your tango, you should come to the practicas as often as possible. Practice is the only way you can become truly proficient in the steps that you learn in class. Guided practicas are conducted by senior club members to review the material learned in class. Open practica means unguided practice with partners of mixed levels. Please see the weekly e-mail for guided practicas. Rooms should be available most week days in ME

Social Times

On Fridays we host dancing parties, small or big. Smaller parties are called milonguitas. They provide a nice environment for social dancing, i.e. when you just enjoy your tango skills, partners of mixed levels, and mingling with your tango friends, and milonguitas are free for all club members. Bigger dancing parties are called milongas. Milongas are held once a month, include light refreshments, and are normally attended by a larger number of dancers including out of town guests. Milongas are free for beginners. Once you feel comfortable in your tango dancing, the whole new quality of socializing and recreation time is open for you! Exciting evenings and weekends: tango dancing parties, tango festivals, and performances!!!Once you feel comfortable in your tango dancing, the whole new quality of socializing and recreation time is open for you!
