there are an infinite number of things you can do in Tango - But there are only 30 things we do in tango and everything else is just a variation of these or a sub component of these elements.
Here at the studio we concentrate on teaching you the most common elements/patterns that you will encounter at a milonga. We teach a total of 9 variations of each element (three variations at each level (basic intermediate and Advance). In reality to dance Tango the majority of people just do the first 12 elements and a couple of variations of those. The following are what I believe are the basic elements of tango. Shown are just one of the variations of each element at the beginner level.
Not shown are the sub-catagories of each of the elements such as in Ochos Sub categories back ochos, forward ochos extended ochos, milonguero and so on.

Our ultimate goal is to put our entire library on line and allow everyone to study each and every element in depth.
For now its just to show you what we offer and our method of teaching. Our Students will have access to the entire video library at their current level so they can work ahead. No fee except what they pay for their group classes. The library will have demonstrations with complete labels and instructions as though they were in class.
