Discover the Tango Studio, a beautiful new garden dance studio with
skylights and wooden floor in the heart of Berkeley. We host some of the
best tango teachers in the world. We have classes for all levels of
Argentine tango. All classes are small (maximum 12 students) so that you
get lots of individual attention and correction, in some cases almost like a
semi-private lesson. Prices are reasonable and discounts are offered on
some workshops. Parking is free and the neighborhood is safe. Only 6
blocks from Rockridge BART station. We even have carpooling from here to
some of the milongas in San Francisco.
