Tango trial classes
La Tangueria regularly proposes free trial lessons to see if tango is for you. A trial lesson is also an opportunity for singles to get to know a partner before signing up for a series of initiation lessons together. Of course, 2 ladies or 2 gentlemen can also participate together. A trial can also be used as a catch-up class for those who missed the start of a series.
Next confirmed free trial lessons:
> WEDNESDAY 24/5 at 20h40
> MONDAY 29/5 at 14h30 (= also part 1 of the Discovery Workshop and catch-up lesson for those who want to join the Sunday or Tuesday series)
> WEDNESDAY 31/5 at 20h30 (= also first class of the series if there are at least 5 couples who register)

> Sunday from 15h
Price: the trial sessions organised by La Tangueria are free, but reservation is compulsory via mail, Whatsapp (+32479228698) or the registration form, because the number of places is limited, or if there are not many registrations, the trial could be canceled. Come as you are, as a couple (preferably) or alone. The trial can also be done with a person of the same gender, but if you prefer to be put in contact with a lady or a gentleman before, you can fill out a partner form and we will try to find a suitable partner for you.

Tango discovery workshops
If you want to discover tango in a nutshell, you can participate in one or more of our compact workshops. The programme of these Discovery sessions is each time different, as the teachers approach the basics of tango from different angles.
No tango experience is required to participate, but also those who already know some of the basics will discover in each edition new elements of the tango vocabulary. Our Discovery workshops are thus a valid alternative to learn tango also for those who don’t have the possibility to take part in a regular weekly class.
They are proposed in 2 x 90 minutes, over 1 or 2 days.
We propose a Discovery workshops on a regular basis.
