Tango tanzen mit Jan, um in jedem Schritt neue Empfindungen zu erschaffen. Tanzen mit der Tangoschule Zürich La Pantera. Auch in Zug und Rapperswil.

Jan

As an architect, I was looking for a hobby which would be able to calm me down after a day full of stress and responsibility and allow me to use my creativity. Dancing tango is creating new sensations in every step.

Milena and Nathanael

Leading and following - the too completely different sides of tango. Both active, both to the same extent important, yet so complementary. And still - both of us take the full responsibility for the wellbeing of the couple. Being able to lead AND follow gives us deep insights for mindful teaching.

I love making compliments to ladies (without ulterior motives), which they receive far too little. Furthermore Tango is my perfect cardio workout - without even realizing the effort.

Jan and Sonja

In our competitive society, tango is an empathetic oasis. We need to feel each other in order to dance well. Technique is additional - body empathy is the key.

Tango means belonging to a bigger family. Meeting friends and enjoying life. Making jokes, forgetting the stress of the day. And it offers a setting which allows you to dress up nicely if you wish, without feeling overdressed.
