Argentine Tango Class - Kapiti Coast
Bring your partner, your friends, workmates, and acquaintances. Or come on your own. During the class, together, we will build a safe and encouraging environment to help you connect with the music, the partner, and the floor and eventually make your way to your own tango.
Mark will introduce you to the fundamentals of Argentine Tango, tango history and urban legends. The lessons will teach you how to walk the tango and how to turn, which is technically all you need in order to dance. There will be some anxious moments no doubt and some good laughs too.

This show will showcase classics such as “Jerusalem”, “Land of Hope and Glory”, and “Rule Britannia”, plus many other patriotic, comic and classical favourites.
