Tango at the Gregg
Thursday, July 26, and Thursday, August 2, 6pm
True Argentine tango is not what you see on Dancing With The Stars! It’s an improvisational dance form that teaches you to communicate with a partner through movement. Come learn the basics of this beautiful dance with Marco and Elise of Raleigh Tango. We’ll explore the fundamentals of partner connection and finish with a fun sequence of steps you can take to the dance floor. You’re welcome to come with a parter or by yourself. We’ll encourage everyone to switch partners during class, but it’s your choice to switch or stick with the person you came with! Wear comfortable clothes and shoes that pivot easily. FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED.
You can check out past events on our Past Programs page.
