About Tango Abrazo

Tango Abrazo was founded in 1998 and is a voluntary non-profit organisation. Our aim is to promote and develop Argentinian tango in Bergen. We are an active organisation and can offer:

Classes at all levels
Short introductory courses
Milongas twice a week
Participation in Bergen´s cultural life
Performances upon request for various occasions (team building, parties, promotions, etc.)

For team building we can offer introduction courses and performance.

What kind of social environment do we strive for?

Tango Abrazo strives to create an environment where everyone feels welcome and where all members and visitors treat each other with respect. Please speak to a board member if you experience anything that does not align with this ethos.

Some people are sensitive to or even made ill by perfume or aftershave. We therefore ask that you refrain from wearing these during milongas or other events organized by Tango Abrazo. Some of our members may need to leave the room if they detect a strong scent. Please be considerate of your dance partners and friends!
