Mira Barakat is back to teach Argentine tango at La Bruja! Mira's classes focus on simple, elegant figures for social dancing. Mira is equally amazing at leading and following, and provides guidance on technique for both roles. She is an expert at communicating clearly to a large group.
The beginner class is open to all levels. The intermediate class is geared towards people who have been dancing for at least three months (12 tango classes).
These classes are taught using the terms “leaders” and “followers,” and are inclusive to queer, trans, and non-binary people.
No partner necessary; the teacher encourages people to switch partners throughout the class.
We encourage everyone to sign up for all three classes, but drop-ins are also welcome.
