What is 'modern tango' I hear you ask? Well if you have come to our classes or events before then you already know as nothing has changed, but if you are new to Tangosynthesis then 'modern' describes us pretty well.
We dance to contemporary music. That may be modern music written for tango, but it is just as likely to be blues, jazz, or anything else with a suitable rhythm or flow. If you like a track and want to dance to it then tell us and we will give it a try.
We have a modern teaching style. Graham has spent years not just learning how to dance tango, but in understanding how it works and how to teach it. Rather than simply learning steps by repetition he encourages you to understand the language of movement, musicality, and connection that forms the essence of tango, and and through that encourages more creative improvisation.
So if you want to learn tango but are looking for a more modern approach than you might find at some other classes, give us a try. And there is always free tea and coffee (and usually biscuits) too!
Our tango training video series are here to help you practice what you learned in class, or to help you learn at home if that works best for you:
At some point during any tango class it is very likely you will hear your teacher talking about dissociation, [more...]
Why do so many people think that tango is only 'real tango' if it is danced to music by [more...]

Tuesdays are one of the highlights of the week now I have tango. The classes are serious fun, in that learning to tango is an art and more complicated than many dances but the teaching makes it accessible and we always have a laugh. It's a lovely atmosphere and a great escape from the working week to just get absorbed in dancing and good music.
The teaching is inclusive so whether you are a beginner or an experienced dancer you'll learn new things and feel like you are making progress.
It's a good value class, plenty of individual tuition and time to dance and practice at the end.
