We are a group of dancers in the Washington, DC area that is interested in learning tango in a queer-centered space and that values community and coalition-building among underprivileged groups. Allies are welcome. Please see our Community Norms (https://www.dcqueertangocollective.com/community-norms) to learn about our expectations.
All of our events are free of charge. We strive to create a space where members of the LGBTQ+ community can safely explore tango without preconceptions about gender and gender-based roles.

The course is intended for those who have completed the Collective's beginners' series or a similar course (in other words, those with some knowledge and experience with the basics of the tango walk). If you are unsure whether this course is for you, please email your questions to José and Olga (email: dcqueertangocollective@outlook.com).
The first session is Saturday, Nov 7, the second Saturday, Nov. 14th, then there will be a two-week break (no classes Nov. 21 or Nov. 28, over the Thanksgiving Holiday). The last two classes will be December 5th and December 12th. Participants should try to attend all four as each class will build on prior classes. Start time is 3pm and we will go to about 430pm. The series is free of charge, but registration is required.
