Argentine tango

We teach traditional tango as it was passed down by the old masters, emphasizing the embrace, musicality, technique for both leaders and followers, footwork, and connection. Our classes incorporate figures from both tango de pista and stage tango.

Milonga is a style of tango with a faster rhythm and a distinct meter. We teach the specific techniques needed to dance milonga, ensuring adaptation to its unique musicality and style.

The tango waltz, also known as tango criollo, has its own distinct rhythm and technique. In our classes, we teach you how to interpret this style and move harmoniously to the waltz's rhythm.

Testimonials from our students

Giorgia
Luciano is an amazing instructor!! From the very first lesson he saw the challenges I was working on, and in only a few weeks I have found huge improvement in my dancing!✨ He works diligently to balance the group classes to have equal numbers of leaders and followers ~ something I appreciate extremely🙏 His classes are so enjoyable and the community he has brought together has been very welcoming. After only a couple of group classes, I decided to add private lessons with him each week. I know (and am experiencing) the changes in my dancing that I have longed for! I’m here in Valencia for only a few months and I’m excited to see how far I will rise in my tango. I feel exceptionally lucky to have found Luciano as my teacher here!❤️
Nicholas
As a beginner to tango, Luciano and his classes were really helpful in helping me to learn the basics of tango in a friendly environment. The lessons were fun, and Luciano was patient and kind. Highly recommended.
Eugenia
I came for a winter holiday to Valencia from London. I was fortunate enough to get in touch with this fabulous tango teacher Luciano from Argentina who not only teaches clearly and well but makes the class fun. Integrated me as a foreigner to his usual local clases group, which is very welcome by me. He immediately spots what it is needed to learn and explained clearly what to work on to improve the technique of tango. I thoroughly recommend getting in touch with Luciano.
Waleed
Well, dear Argentinian Tango aficionados and novices, I had the best ever private lessons with Luciano, who without doubt is one of the best natural dancers in AT that I’ve worked with. His movement is organic and his understanding of body dynamic and partner connection is superb. He provided me with three different female dance students of his, each of whom partnered me for an hour to an hour an a half while Luciano instructed me. The students were amazing and an excellent reflection of Luciano’s teaching. Luciano focused on getting me to move with confidence around the dance floor. I’m sorry I didn’t have more than two weeks in Valencia. I can’t wait to go back and work for a month or two with Luciano. Keep up the excellent work Luciano. Muchas gracias por todo.
Elena
Luciano is a fantastic teacher! I feel really lucky I have found Luciano to be my teacher in Valencia. His classes are thorough and very well structured, with a focus on posture and walk, connection and musicality. It was a real joy! Thank you, Luciano ❤️
Mähä
Great tango class where you learn a lot and have fun! I started with some experience but haven‘t dance for a long time due to covid. Luciano not only helped me remember the basics, but also found the perfect shoes for me, and taught me a lot. I recommend this to everyone, no matter the level.
Giuliana
Loved the flexibility around lessons. You could sign up for individual classes as much as monthly classes. It can be so hard to find courses starting in different periods of the year but this particular teacher accepts student all year round and really makes the effort of fitting them in the right class. Very professional and really nice environment ! He spreads his love for tango so easily you’ll find the tangero/a in you which you never though you had! Highly recommended 🙂

Tango culture

What is the Language Used in Tango?

Argentine tango is renowned not only for its passionate dance and melodious music but also for the distinctive language it employs: lunfardo. Originating in the neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, lunfardo is a rich slang filled with expressions and vocabulary that reflect Argentina’s history and culture. This language developed from the blend of various cultures and immigrations, including Italian, French, indigenous, and gaucho influences. In this article, we will explore what lunfardo is, how it was formed, and its significance in Argentine tango lyrics.
