Shona Barr and Alistair MacDonald have been at the centre of the Glasgow tango scene for many years. There also occassional visits from other tango maestros.

They offer regular beginner, improver & intermediate classes. The Glasgow Tango page is for anyone who wants to know about our Argentine Tango Classes and special events. Glasgow Tango teachers, Alistair and Shona, give termly beginners, intermediate and improver classes. For good measure, they also do free tango tasters for those who would like to dip their toes in the water before comitting them
