Welcome to MIDTOWN TANGO in Eugene, Oregon!

Our suggestions below are helpful when you attend an event.

We look forward to seeing you!

MIDTOWN TANGO suggests the following courtesies:

• Bring your spirit of generosity and gratitude.

• Dress up a little and "dress for the season!"

• Come clean and fresh and avoid strong perfumes or fragrances.

• Appreciate your partner without teaching them on the dance floor.

• Enjoy conversation only between songs while on the dance floor.

MIDTOWN TANGO encourages the following "códigos" (etiquette):

• Practice Cabeceo (eye contact and head nod) as invitation and acceptance for a dance. Cabeceo can be practiced from any convenient distance.

• Prior to entering the established line of dance (ronda), leaders will catch the eye of an on-coming leader to establish a connection for safe entry. Wait for this leader to acknowledge with a nod.

• Couples continue in the line of dance without changing lanes.

• If you dance in the center, maintain a clear inner ring (ronda) with attention to the outer ring (ronda) as well.

• Couples keep their lane moving without crowding the next couple.

• Leaders accompany the follow from the dance floor at the end of the tanda.
