Tango Facilitator Trainings

 
 

We offer training opportunities for those interested in guiding and assisting others in their tango journey.

Argentine Tango Culture can be an avenue for people to find a deep connection to themselves and others. Helping others create and support healthy tango communities is the most potent, current, and relevant way of living and sharing a passion for connection through Argentine Tango.

The Tango Facilitator Trainings are structured programs designed to give you the tools you need to help fellow social tango dancers advance in their tango journey.

  • A healthy tango community is built by the whole community. It needs skillful teachers, organizers, tutors, and hosts who manifest, communicate, facilitate, accompany, model, and hold together a group of people as they travel through their tango journey.

    A healthy tango community is sustained and supported through positive connections. These connections are created by technically and socially skilled dancers who want to be community movers and leaders by hosting, tutoring, modeling, or teaching others.

  • A Tango Facilitator helps guide fellow dancers along their tango journey, making the dance more accesible, enjoyable, and sustainable.

    Tango Facilitators play one or many roles in a given tango community depending on their expertise, engagement, and training. Through coaching, teaching, and hosting roles, they help create pathways for dancers to deepen their connection with Argentine Tango.

    All tango communities need tango facilitators to exist, function, and grow sustainably.

    Tango Facilitators’ skills help keep Argentine Tango attractive, accessible, and lively.

  • All tango communities need support and resources to develop and grow. We want to assist those interested and engaged in further developing their tango communities.

    We are very excited about this project and its potential for the local tango communities. We believe tango is ready for a shift and we want to be part of that change.

  • We would like to offer the friendliest and most welcoming tango event one could imagine.

    The general public can sign up for workshops and dances as usual.
