Tango performances & demonstrations
We are tango teachers first and foremost. Most of our 'performances' are actually demonstrations: informal presentations of one or more improvised Argentine tangos. If you book us as guest teachers, we will include a demonstration of authentic, improvised tango.
We also give more formal performances, beyond the teaching context, eg. on stage or for private groups (at birthday parties, anniversary parties, and so on). Occasionally, we develop choreographies for these performances, though often we will simply improvise. Even when we present a choreography, we will always include some improvised tangos alongside, because this is the essence of real Argentine tango.
We can dance all contemporary styles of Argentine tango and tend to include a variety (always at least one salon and one nuevo) in each demonstration or performance.
If you would like to book us to perform at your special event, please read on, and contact us to discuss.

Performances at dance events
In our role as guest teachers, we have given performances to numerous salsa, ballroom and other dance groups across and beyond the South East. We have given both choreographed and improvised performances on numerous dance holidays. Click here for more information about our guest teaching.
We also participate in many festivals, performing onstage, in the streets, and in dedicated dance workshops. We regularly contribute tango workshops and performances to the Canterbury festival.
Performances for special occasions
We have danced for a wide range of special occasions: at weddings and anniversary celebrations, for private parties and groups, at gallery openings and special themed evenings in various restaurants.
Stage and screen performances
We have collaborated with, taught alongside and danced to performances by live tango groups (including Lost Tangos and especially Los Mareados).
In June 2012 we performed onstage at the Gulbenkian theatre, Canterbury, improvising alongside Piazzolla's music performed live on piano and clarinet. In September 2012 we danced several improvised tangos to live music, at the Astor Theatre Deal, as part of a celebratory concert of Piazzolla's work (see video below).
In July 2009, we performed an improvised tango to a live harp performance, as part of a DVD of a new opera, Mirabai.
