What should I wear to tango classes?
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable. Dressing in layers is also a good idea. Skirts are recommended for women.
What kind of shoes should I wear?
It is advisable to bring a pair of indoor shoes. In addition:
For men: Wear shoes with a smoother, more slippery sole at the front and without a raised edge. It is also helpful if the shoes do not have long toes, but end where your toes do.
For women: The same guidelines apply as for men, and it is helpful to wear shoes with a slightly higher heel.
I’m coming with a partner — is it mandatory to switch partners?
It is not mandatory, but it is recommended. In our experience, those who are open to dancing with others also find it easier to dance with their own partner. Our method is the following: there is partner rotation, but after every second rotation, you can return to your own partner.
I’m coming alone — will I have a dance partner?
Both men and women often register individually, so it is easy to find a partner at the beginning. We aim for a balanced ratio of men and women; therefore, if we see before the intensive course that there will be more participants of one gender, we invite more experienced assistants.
