Learning to Dance Argentine Tango at Reading Tango Club

We aim to provide the best possible experience of learning authentic Argentine Tango and to help all our students enjoy the art and culture that surrounds this beautiful dance. We only use professionally trained Argentinian Tango teachers who have studied the dance from its roots and whose teaching focuses on technique, dance structure and musically. All our teachers work to a structured programme to ensure consistency of learning.They all share our enthusiasm and passion for tango.

Our Wednesday class teachers usually teach in blocks of 4 - 6 weeks. We also run workshops with visiting expert teachers to give you the opportunity to work with dancers and teachers at the top of their field. And each autumn we organise Reading Tango Festival, a fabulous weekend of workshops, milongas and world class performances. We hope you'll enjoy dancing with us!
