Queer Tango London
This event will take place in person.
Queer Tango London offers people who dance tango – or anyone who wants to learn – opportunities to experiment with who does what, and why, and how.
We teach authentic Argentinian Tango, but with queer sensibilities: same sex couples, women leading, men following – all combinations are possible with us. LGBTQ dancers and everyone else are welcome to try out dancing tango as leaders and/or as followers in our safe queer space.

Meet the Hosts

Queer Tango London
QTL is a London based Argentine tango organisation that is open to EVERYONE, free of the rigid structure that 'men must lead and women must follow'. We believe that anyone can dance with anyone, regardless of gender or sexuality and we passionately believe in the benefits of Tango to both the mind and body. So if you want to dance tango - and experiment with who does what, why, and how - we want to encourage that curiosity. You will always be welcome at QTL whoever you are and whomever you wish to dance with.
