Do you want to discover your own personal way of expressing yourself through tango? Do you want to participate instead of just watching?
Then our Performance Company is just right for you! The highlight of the program is the chance to perform together on stage at the participants' surprise ball! In dynamic group work and close collaboration with you, the focus will be on the joy of dance and its expressive possibilities!

"Tango People"
In our performance, we explore the poetry of humanity, between drama and sobriety, narrative and abstraction. It will be a shared and personal experience.
How can tango break free from familiar imagery, only to reinvent itself—refreshing and expressive? How do we connect in tango, what makes our feet itch? Can we conjure a PHANTASTango! performance from our inner visions, incorporating our own experiences, memories, and feelings?
We will cultivate our presence to approach the stage with alertness and composure. Together, we will give form to the unique expressive possibilities that each of you brings, developing a simple, short piece that challenges everyone in their own way, fostering personal growth—and undoubtedly bringing much joy.
