Welcome to Argentine Tango in Fresno, California! Join us to learn and dance the famous Argentine tango, now enjoying a worldwide resurgence with its distinctive music, romantic style, and dramatic flourishes! Tango is an exciting, sexy dance. Argentine tango is a special variety of tango -- it is more romantic than International (English) and American tango. Argentine tango gives you more freedom to be creative than most other dances. Your feet don't have to move to any specific rhythmic pattern. Although you dance rhythmically, the tango steps you take are your own creation and the timing is your timing -- the way you interpret the music. And it is interesting that often the leader and follower do not step at the same time as in ballroom dancing! Tango originated in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The musical styles that have evolved with the dance over the last 100 years are also known as "tango". Today, there are many tango dance styles including Tango Argentino, ballroom tango (American and International styles), Finnish tango, Chinese tango, and vintage tangos. The Argentine Tango is regarded as the "authentic" tango since it is closest to that originally danced in Buenos Aires. The milonga (a fast 2/count) and the argentine vals(a 3/count) are also taught as companion dances the classic tango.

We teach all the major ballroom dances- Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Quickstep, and Viennese Waltz. The student decides what level of proficiency they want to achieve- some want just a basic knowledge so they can enjoy dancing socially, while others strive for excellence as competitive dancers. Most people find a combination of both private and group instruction beneficial. The private lesson allows the individual or
couple to target specific dance needs, while the group lesson gives the student focused practice on a particular dance to build "muscle memory" and make their dancing look smooth and effortless. The group lessons feature partner "rotation," so the student gets the opportunity to lead/follow a variety of partners.

The latin dances include Rumba, Cha Cha, Mambo, Samba, Merengue, and
Bolero. In contrast to the Ballroom dances which focus on movement around
the dance floor, the latin dances put more emphasis on quick, sharp movement with fast turns and changes of direction, danced more on a spot on the dance floor. Students learn the techniques of hip and ribcage movement to engage the whole body in the dance.

The American fun dance. Swing is danced to a variety of tempos, from the big band sounds of the forties, to rock and roll , as well as rhythm and blues. Two styles, East Coast and West Coast, are predominant, with East Coast being more circular in movement, while West Coast is danced in a "slot."
