Unlock the Magic of Argentine Tango – 4-Week Series Starts Aug 20!

Welcome to VivaTango! Whether you are taking your very first steps or looking to refine your dance, this is the perfect week to join the lessons. Starting this Thursday, acclaimed instructors Pablo Garcia Gomez and Iwona Ionescu launch a 4-week progressive series: Expanding Creative Resources for Dancing Tango.

We’ve designed a dedicated, stress-free space just for beginners. Our dance floor is split so new dancers can learn and practice comfortably at their own pace without feeling overwhelmed.

Advanced dancers will have a separate dedicated space and lessons focused on improving their skills. A milonga hosted by DJ DimOn will follow the lessons and the beginner dancers will have a separate area to dance with each other and not have to mix in with the more advanced dancers until they feel ready to do that. The instructors will be available during the milonga to help any dancer that wishes one-on-one help.

FREE EVENTS FOR VOLUNTEERS
VivaTango continues to need help to make events run smoothly. Setup only takes a little time and you do not miss any milonga time. The same is true about cleanup. Working on the welcome desk is a great way to get to know your fellow dancers. The hero of the night is the person who brings the food for the event. If you can help contact Sylvie

WATER
We urge dancers to bring their water bottle from home to cut down on single use bottles. There is a chilled water fountain and a cold/hot water dispenser that you can use to refill your water bottle or get a drink to keep yFREE EVENTS FOR VOLUNTEERS

THREE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

Read these 3 bullets carefully:

1) This week’s LIVE MUSIC will be fantastic! DON’T MISS IT BECAUSE

2) THERE WILL NOT BE EVENTS THE FOLLOWING TWO WEEKS – JULY

3) This is advanced notice that the first ever 4-week progressive lesson series will start August 20. There will be a separate series for advanced and beginner dancers.

Beginners will have a separate space to practice during the milonga and will be able to join the milonga when they feel ready. See more details below.

JOY happens every Thursday at VivaTango.

Three new videos have been added to Viva Tango YouTube Channelthis week

Thursday, June 25th. Claudio Morsella and Eran Polat have delighted Viva Tango dancers several times in the past. They return to perform for us after a long break. Their mastery of guitar and mutual synergy create very danceable and exciting tango music for our enjoyment. Their expressions of familiar tango tunes are unique and sensual. DJ Kerry Kay is back in NJ for a short time, while travelling and living around the world. She will once again charm us with her wonderful tango music selections before, between, and after the live music sets.

7:00 pm: Milonga starts with DJ Kerry Kay.

8:30 pm: First live music set with Claudio & Eran.

Admission: $20.
