Tango at Atomic Ballroom
Whew…is it hot in here or was it just the dancing?! If you want to work on your Abrazo (that distinct tango embrace), Barridas (those sexy tango leg sweeps), Ochos (some swiveling figures) and more, then check out the Argentine Tango Program at Atomic Ballroom! Our instructors can help you get the basics, refine your technique and prepare you for our local milongas. In addition to classes we offer workshops, social dancing and special holiday parties for Orange County and LA tango lovers.
