Tango In Ames

Tango In Ames 'Like' us to learn & dance Tango. Or, Drop by any Sunday 4-7 PM room 3512 Memorial Union, ISU! Any level dancer will find satisfaction dancing.

About Tango:

Argentine tango is an exciting and empowering dance that ushers you into a new exotic world. Argentine Tango is rich with nuance and considered to be the most challenging and fulfilling of all partnered dances. Studying Argentine Tango can improve your balance, focus, sensitivity, and particularly your ability to work with and respond spontaneously to a partner. Ames hosts regular t

ango salons and milongas and is fortunate to enjoy the excellent teaching of tanguera Valerie Williams. About The Dance Class:

Have fun, be in shape, stay cool and sexy with more energy, less effort, meet new friends from all over the world, and without breaking your wallet. Beginners and advanced dancers alike learn from each other, concentrating on good dancing technique and learning vocabulary to enhance their dancing. Although Tango has been showcased and celebrated on the stage and screen for decades, you may be surprised at how the real experience of dancing the tango socially differs from what you've seen in live performance and on TV. So, what are you waiting for? Try Tango this year!
