A Tango Lesson with Fabian Salas Acclaimed master from Buenos Aires' Congreso Internacional de Tango Argentino', will conduct an intensive 7 day course in the fundamentals and complexities of today's Tango,
May 4th - 13th in Los Angeles. A tireless researcher, Fabian Salas, as one of the most respected names in Tango, has brought light to old beliefs and blazed new paths in the conception of the dance, creating an unmistakable way of dancing Tango. What was previously thought to be only in the realm of choreography and the stage is now possible to lead/follow in a highly creative and improvisational manner on the social dance-floor.

Fabian's method will enable you to understand the technique and correct execution behind the complexities of traditional as well as modern Tango.
