Tango is so much more than a dance—it's connection, music, presence, and those magical moments when everything just flows. Every dance is a new conversation, and every song tells a different story.

Grateful to be part of such a wonderful community. 💃🖤🎶

We met every Wednesday in Yarragon starting at 7pm. Get in touch if you want to be part of this community.

This is what happens when the teacher is away.... The Cats go out to play.
Tango Esencia is a dance studio in Richmond that has a class and then milonga (social dance) on Wednesday evenings. This makes it the perfect opportunity to use our class time to expand our learning and practice.
So much fun.
Thank you for making us feel so welcome!

EL Volcado!

Learning this powerful, dynamic and sometimes rather subtle move takes a lot of precision, focus and communication between the partners.

This move is sometimes called 'the overturn' as the follower goes beyond the threshold of their partner and experiences a sense of falling or being suspended in space. The leader then needs to counter that and help draw them back to a place of balance.

It takes trust, precision and some guts to go for it. But when done right it looks fleeting, flowing and so natural the watcher may wonder 'just what did happen there'!

Tango is beautiful, rich, deep and layered dance.

We dance in Yarragon every Wednesday with one of the Australia's best teachers and dancer.

This is what a social dance, called a milonga, can look like. Very occasionally GT offers their own. This Friday we are having a practice-milonga. This gives participants a chance to practice their dance without the pressure of performance, in a milonga setting.
If you fancy a dance or just want to watch, you're welcome to join us.
Check out our event page with all the details.

Learning to follow.

The last video shared showed you the leaders learning their steps and how to offer this sequence. And now here it is, expressed through the follower.
The follower learn, not such to listen to the suggestion, but to imprint her own personality and interpretation of the movement.
It takes two to Tango afterall.
