Milonga Etiquette - Introduction

A milonga is a most enjoyable event to go to once Tango finds its way into your heart, but it can also be rather intimidating for a Tango beginner.  We hope to give you some basic information so you may come to learn of and enjoy this beautiful event.

The milonga is a social Tango dance party where people come together to dance, socialize, enjoy the music, watch the shows and soak in the emotions that are Tango.  There are a variety of venues that can hold a milonga. Examples are homes, bars, restaurants, dance studios, beaches etc. etc. etc..  Its really up to the imagination of the organizers and the communities.
