Alberto Barsellini - milonga host and guide

A message from Lis and Alberto:  

We’ve been dancing together since 2009. Working on our tango dancing has given us a lot of joy and praise and we strive to keep doing what we truly love.


As tango teachers for beginer-intermediate level we want to convey the joys and challenges of dancing in crowded  BA milongas so everyone can have the tools to be able to enjoy this experience.


With that goal in mind we developed some solo technique exercises and a series of progressively difficult steps so even from the first classes you can start walking the dancing floor. 


We are firm believers in Tango as a social dance where everyone on the floor depends on everyone else. Also, this social aspect implies that we refuse to teach complicated patterns - usually associated with performance stage tango - and instead focus on clean communication between partners, navigation, and musicality skills... things that, in the end, are what provide joy for us and for our partners. 


We hope to see you on our shared journey to tango bliss!
