Welcome to Tango Petaluma!

Argentine Tango…
Vibrant, Exotic, Cosmopolitan

Tango is a dance, a story, a language.

It is not just about dancing, it is about learning a new kind of movement and a new way to communicate.

Tango will captivate you and spur you on to master it as one would yoga or a martial art.

It is a dance, certainly. However, it is a dance far more complex than one would imagine. It is not about the complexity of the steps, but about the complexity of the form and music, how it affects your life, how it affects your soul.

In tango, I found a dance that completely captivated me. Not a dance solely about steps, but one that takes all parts of you to accomplish, and that takes years to understand--beyond the physical aspect. It reflects love, joy, regret, loss, angst, loneliness, community, in short: life.

Some of the myriad excuses I hear why one can't learn tango:

It is too difficult

I have two left feet

I don't have a partner

I can't lead

I can't follow

I don't like partner dancing

I'm afraid

There are many things we consider difficult in our lives, but once we overcome our resistance, they become easier and easier. It is time to explore new frontiers.

I invite you to try this incredible dance. If you let it, tango will enter your soul in a way you won't regret.

Dance is the perfect remedy for dealing with our often hectic and stressful lives!

Please call or email and I will happily answer your questions.

Dance your passion, dance tango,
Donna
