Spanish & Tango in Granada, Spain

The Argentinian poet and composer Enrique Santos Discepolo referred to Tango as «un pensamiento triste que hasta se puede bailar». The passion for Tango emerged in late 18th century as a result of changing cultural and social influences in Buenos Aires and Montevideo.

 

Today Tango is one of the most popular types of dances in the world, and while a century ago, Tango was a simple and local dance practised by the poorer Latin American population, it is nowadays a complex and fiery dance. This programme allows participants to dance Tango in Granada, one of the most fascinating cities in the world. We offer you the chance to experience the practical skills of Tango whilst learning  the Spanish language. We provide the opportunity to complement your Spanish Course with Tango dance classes in collaboration with recognized and qualified dance teachers from Uruguay.
