Membership

Members pay a flat fee of $40 at the beginning of the semester, which covers bootcamp, regular classes and practicas throughout the semester. Returning students (with sufficient experience) who do not wish to attend bootcamps can attend the regular classes for the semester for the same flat fee.

Bootcamps

Bootcamps are two 3-hour sessions taught by Lori and Howard, designed as a crash course/refresher for the foundational concepts and steps of tango. They will run:

Monday, September 18th, 7 - 10 pm

Monday, September 25th, 7- 10 pm

In Rm 409 of Pottruck Gym at 3701 Walnut Street.

The two sessions will NOT cover the same material, so we encourage you to attend both!

You can register for our two bootcamps via Eventbrite.

Attendee Information:

Please arrive 10-15 min early for registration! Please be prompt so we may start on time.

Do I need a partner?

We do not require anyone to bring a partner, but please be prepared to rotate with everyone in order to facilitate your learning.

What should I wear? Do I need special shoes?

Please wear comfortable and breathable clothes, easy for you to move in.

Dance heels are welcome but not required. Socks will be totally fine for beginners.

Please do not wear street shoes onto the studio floor, to avoid tracking dirt into the space.

We are looking forward to another awesome semester of learning this wonderful dance!
