We are excited to welcome Rino & Graziella to the DMV! Since 2010, Rino and Graziella have partnered to enhance their personal growth in tango.
The discipline and training they gained from their ballroom experience have driven them to continuously refine the basic technical elements of tango and to develop a distinct and recognizable teaching method.
Through their dedication, Rino and Graziella have cultivated a unique approach that blends rigorous technique with the expressive artistry that tango offers.
Note the classes below are geared towards more intermediate/advanced dancers. However, we strongly believe there is always something to learn at any level. So, if you have been dancing for a few years or less and want to participate, let us know and we'll help you find a partner!
