Milongas & Practicas

A milonga is a social dance event for Argentine tango. Most milongas follow a structured format with tandas (sets of 3-4 songs) separated by cortinas (short musical breaks). Dancers invite each other using the cabeceo, a subtle eye-contact invitation from across the room.

A practica is an informal practice session where dancers work on technique, try new moves, and dance in a more relaxed setting. Practicas are great for beginners and for experienced dancers refining their skills.
