Opposites  Attract will provide  a  non-gender  specific friendly environment (i.e.,  men and women each  may  either  lead  or  follow),  but of course YOU are welcome  to  maintain  traditional  roles.

traditional  compositions plus a ‘musicality’  selection)  will be  played  in  longer sets of tango, vals  &  milonga songs rather than in  tanda/cortina format to enable  concentration  of  effort  for  each  particular style.
