New to Tango?
Fantastic, welcome! Alex Krebs, the owner of Tango Berretín,will start a total beginning Argentine Tango dance series on Wednesday nights starting January 7th, 2026 to get you going.
Time: 6:30-7:30pm, Wednesdays in January starting January 7th. Doors open at 6pm and class starts at 6:30pm. ***If you missed the first night, still feel free to join on January 14th***
Cost: $70/person/4 weeks
Location: Tango Berretín, 6305 SE Foster Rd.
*No partner or pre-registration is required - just show up sometime between 6-6:25pm on the first day of class. Wear comfortable clothing. No special shoes required, but a comfortable shoe with a smooth bottom works best (tango dance shoes typically have a leather or suede bottom to make pivoting easier).
In this 4-week series we’ll be covering the fundamentals of the dance and get you going with some basic steps you can use on the social dancefloor.

What’s so special about tango?
Besides the physical benefits of low-impact movement, core strengthening, and mobility, tango provides the social benefits of interacting with others in a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment. Tango has also been associated with phrases like “walking meditation”, “somatic psychotherapy”, and “transformative.”
I’m biased, but if everyone danced tango, I think the world would be a better place. :)
