Join a course now!

Beginner Plus Courses are for recent Beginners with some experience.
If you've taken a few lessons and know a few things in your mind, this course will help your body catch up so you can start to feel like you're dancing enough to move you to the improver's level.

Argentine Tango is a beautiful journey of creation and expression and like many a journey, it starts with a walk, a walk that we take with a dance partner…

Maral & Mariano's Beginner Argentine Tango Classes & Courses at Tango Garden are uniquely designed to make sure you cover all the important elements to get you moving forward on this tango journey of discovery.

You can drop-in or we recommend you start a course alone or with a partner.

Course Format

Venue

There are two Beginner Plus Tango Courses

Both are 4 weeks long (ocasionally 3wks) for recent beginners with little tango experience. 


You can start on "Course A" or "Course B" first, It makes no difference, and each beginner must cover both courses with Maral & Mariano Tango School, before progressing onto Improver level lessons.

The courses introduce the Tango beginner to connection, tango technique and structures, musical styles, musicality, steps and vocabulary groups, tango etiquette, and the all important improvisation skills unique to Argentine Tango.

A partner is not required (occasionally we have couple's offers).

Note: Each lesson starts with exercises on the fundamentals.

Maeve McGreevy
Starting out with Irish Dance as a child, Maeve’s curiosity about the body’s potential for movement and feeling led her to train in and graduate from London Contemporary Dance School with a First Class BA (Hons) in 2016.

Tango and contemporary dance came into Maeve’s practice simultaneously and she is always striving to transfer and apply knowledge from one discipline to the other. She wants to improve her understanding of the body so that she can be free to move, to dance and to help others do the same.

Professionally, Maeve has been commissioned by arts festivals and galleries to choreograph and perform several works both at home in Ireland and here in London over the past few years, most notably Belfast’s Metropolitan Arts Centre (The MAC) and London’s Guildhall School of Music and Drama.

Outside of dance she has been involved in theatre works, short films and is also studying for a BA (hons) in English Literature through the Open University.
