What are Concepts?
Concepts are special intensives organised by TangoSpace
where over four hours a single idea or tango ‘concept’ is built from the ground
up. Students MUST enrol with a partner. Throughout the Concept you work with
your partner to your desired level. Concepts are divided into two 2 hour
sessions with a 1 hour break in between. You must enrol for the full four
hours. But the good news is that within the hour break, we will supply you with
lunch. Concepts cost $100 per person which becomes $80 with the early bird
price for payments before the 15th October 2014.

@ The Strand in Applecross
Come along and be challenged in your tango. The objective of this workshop is to express, experiment and explore your repertoire.

You MUST enrol with a partner for this workshop.
Saturday Workshop
Seriously ... Your feet should never hurt.
