Beginning Tango lessons introduce students to the eight-count basic step, the walk, and other fundamental techniques while training them to identify rhythms in the music's melody. R & B line-dancing classes can cover popular group dances, including the Cupid slide and the Cleveland shuffle, and Zumba lessons incorporate Latin dance techniques into a dynamic and engaging cardio workout. The schedule includes dance classes seven days a week, with morning and evening sessions available for beginning and advanced students alike.

The Tango Room Dance Center

As a child in Buenos Aires, Angel Echeverria would sit on the porch of his family home and watch his aunt and uncle dance the tango. Music often spilled into the streets of his neighborhood, where many tango musicians lived. By the time he was a teenager in the early 1960s, Angel began studying the tango himself, and nearly 50 years later he founded The Tango Room Dance Center with Julie Friedgen. Like Angel, Julie grew up watching her parents’ Argentine friends dance tango at parties, and eventually became a ballet and flamenco dancer. Though she didn’t begin learning the tango until 18 years ago, once she started she immediately knew it was the dance to which she would devote the rest of her life.

Not surprisingly, The Tango Room is dedicated to the Argentine style of dance; many of the instructors hail from Argentina and lead classes in traditional, contemporary, waltz, and milonga variations. On Saturday nights the school transforms into El Encuentro—which translates to “the encounter”—a dance party modeled after the tango clubs of Buenos Aires. Beyond tango, the school also hosts classes in salsa, belly dance, and R & B line dancing as well as Zumba and bujinkan, a Japanese martial art.


Though The Tango Room Dance Center sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.

The Groupon Guide to: Status Symbols

There's no point in being insanely rich if nobody else knows it. Boast about your wealth silently with one of these status-signifying items:

Car: A showy car doesn't have to be the fastest car money can buy, it just needs a trunk that's made of glass and large enough to store dozens of exotic, nearly extinct birds.

Watch: Expensive watches trump diamond rings as the most popular jewelry item of the super rich because the vast majority of wealthy people earned their fortune by losing all of their fingers in a fax machine and then getting sympathy money from coworkers.

Lawn: Wealthy people use only the most nutrient-rich and expensive fertilizer on the market—a mixture of damp soil and tenderloin steak.

Bread: Bread itself isn't expensive at all, but when you use a loaf of french bread as a cane, you'll look like an eccentric millionaire.

How many calories are there in a standard walking cane?
