Master the Art of Argentine Tango This Summer—Even If You Have "Two Left Feet."Join the Tango Academy: The Only Connection-First Program for Seattle Dancers of All LevelsLet’s be honest: Most dance classes are a nightmare of counting steps in your head while feeling totally disconnected from your partner. You worry about looking awkward, forcing your body into "unnatural" poses, or—worst of all—that "two left feet" feeling. You’re tired of trying to "get it right" and ending up frustrated.If you want a different approach, where quality vs. quantity gives you real results…SCHEDULE & DETAILSImagine this:What if tango changed YOUR LIFE?What if tango could change how you do life?Not just feeling confident dancing with any partner, in any room, but having that confidence spill into your whole life.Standing taller.

You create an environment that is relaxed and inviting [and] I’ve easily connected with others at your classes... Thank you for facilitating connection on all levels!” — TraciFAQsWhat should I wear?Comfortable clothing or dress it up. The important thing is shoes: wear shoes that allow you to pivot/spin (i.e., do not grip the floor), that are secure on your feet (i.e., no flip-flops), and that you can walk comfortably in. If in doubt, feel free to bring an extra pair with you. You can also turn almost any comfortable shoe into a dance shoe by placing an old sock over the front half of the shoe. This should allow you to pivot easily.Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?No need to print your ticket; once you register you'll be on the list!What's the refund policy?No refunds. However, the class slot is transferrable to someone who will dance the same role (follow or lead) as the original registration.
