La Bruja

Join us for Argentine tango in the East Bay! Tango is one of the world’s oldest partner dances, originating in Argentina and Uruguay.  Dancing tango is a rich and complicated journey towards flow and connection.  Our dance classes prepare you for dancing at milongas (social dances)—you can find one almost every night in the San Francisco Bay Area. 

Our dance classes welcome students of all ages.  Tango classes meet every Wednesday in the Berkeley City Club.  On April 10th, we start a 5-week series with instructors Felipe Martinez and Ayano Yoneda.  Starting May 15th, Luz Castiñeiras teaches a beginning tango class and an intermediate milonga class.  Join us!

Starting Wednesday, April 10th, La Bruja presents a 5-week beginner series AND a 5-week intermediate series with Argentine Tango instructors Felipe Martinez and Ayano Yoneda. Both series meet Wednesdays, April 10th, 17th, 24th, and May 1st & 8th.

Tango 101 is open to total beginners and anyone who wants to work on their fundamentals. For the intermediate series, we recommend that you have been dancing frequently for at least six months.
