As a new student, we suggest that you start with 2 initial private sessions so we can assess your needs and guide you on which class to join, depending if you have any previous experience dancing or not.
Private classes are also recommended if you missed too many classes and would like to catch up with the rest of the group. Private classes are available in the evenings during the weekdays and afternoons at the weekends.

"I really enjoyed how rigorous the class was last week, and I am keen to learn."
Alice, November 2024.
"The classes with Laura at LDA Tango have been inspirational. She focuses on the all-important basics of posture and the right way to move in tango, and on the connection and communication between partners. The classes are always enjoyable, and it is striking how much all the participants have been improving. Highly recommended!" Ross, 2024
