FAQ
1) What do I wear?
Wear something that you are comfortable moving in. We're mostly
students, so it's a very casual environment.
2) Shoes?
If you have shoes that have soft soles (suede, etc) they are IDEAL for
tango. You want a smooth surface on the bottom of your shoes. DO NOT
feel like you have to go out and buy special shoes for tango. Socks are
really good too! Be sure, however, that you wear (if possible) shoes
that will not "come off." Ankle straps for heels, no flip flops, etc.
3) When do I pay?
Membership due is due on the second lesson in the
semester.
4) Do I need a partner?
Absolutely not! We rotate partners often and there is usually a good
ratio of girls to guys. Just bring yourself!
