I don't know too much about the Tango world, but the teachers sh”

“Update** Dancer University totally changed the game for me. The owner Nicole has a pure passion and teaches many of the classes herself. She does this 1on1 with each person at the end of each lesson which is super helpful. One year later, I'm more confident in my dance that I usually don't stop when I go out. On the weekends, Nicole lets us have the studio for 2 hours to practice our dance moves for free! SO MUCH FUN”
