We typically get booked every Tuesday at the Turn from 5 until 8 or even 9pm with private lesson students, both upstairs during practica as well as downstairs PRIOR to practica/group classes. Just FYI, when we’re booked outside our home studio, there’s a travel/floor fee surcharge that varies with the location and the time. For TC members who book us on Tuesdays, the Turn charges a very modest $11/hour fee which we can either deduct from your 5-pak or you are welcome to pay separately on an individual basis (we accept cash, credit card or check).

Below is an overview of our offerings, including private lessons…it’s long but very thorough so we apologize in advance but appreciate your patience and tenacity in reading it to the end as we believe it covers many details and concerns.
We’ve taught literally thousands of people from all walks of life to dance the Argentine tango. We’re very proud that most of our students develop into popular, sought-after partners in most any Argentine tango social dance scene they participate in anywhere in the world. Some are now tremendously successful tango teachers and performers in communities across the USA and even as far off as northern Europe! But don’t let that intimidate you because our specialty is working with everyone from ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS through advanced students, training each individual to achieve the pleasures and delights of reaching their full potential as active, confident and expressive Argentine tango social dancers…so you’ve come to the right place!
We have a great time in our private and group lessons, and we believe you will, too! Full booking details are provided below. No partner is needed, dress is casual, smooth-soled shoes or thick socks are recommended and a sense of humor and adventure is strongly advised!
A quick overview of ALL our offerings:
• on-going private & group tango classes (offered locally & internationally)
• 2 local practicas (all levels welcome)

We observe privates are the fastest, most effective way to learn Argentine tango and enter the social scene with confidence. While classes, practicas, parties, milongas, special trainings, workshops and other social dance venues are all key ingredients, we encourage students at ALL levels to take privates to deepen their understanding, skill level and dancing pleasure while maximizing their fullest potential.
Because everyone is unique, we invite our students to collaborate with us in developing a tailor-made training program/schedule that works best for YOU. Flexibility and creativity are key. To enhance your private lesson training, we warmly encourage you to also attend our weekly group lessons and/or practicas by simply dropping in any Friday (Boulder group lessons) or Tuesday (Denver group lessons & practica) or Thursday (Boulder practicas) that suits your schedule.

Private lesson address & directions to our Boulder DoTH “Studio #304”:
Gold Run Condos
2890 Shadow Creek Drive, Apt. #304
Boulder, CO 80303
Directions:
Shadow Creek Drive (SCD) is ONLY accessible from 30th between Arapahoe and Colorado, south of the Boulder Creek off Scott Carpenter Park. Once you turn onto SCD (Shadow Creek Drive), it winds west past apartment buildings on your left. On your right are volleyball courts and a health club facility. At the Health Club, SCD becomes a roundabout with side streets leading to apartment structures in three separate directions. Take a right hand turn immediately after the Health Club and continue west through a dead-end corridor between two rows of apartment buildings. You’ll note parked cars/parking spaces lining the corridor unevenly on both sides. Our building 2890 is the last one on the left but the ‘2890’ sign is not prominently displayed. Some landmarks that help identify the entrance – there are no parking spaces directly in front of the building but there are several directly opposite facing Boulder Creek which is visible just south of a (densely packed) bicycle rack. We’re on the third floor in #304 where you can choose between the stairs or the elevator. We’re the second door on your right at the top of the stairs. From the elevator, #304 is the first door on your left.
Parking:
All parking is free but requires a little sleuthing. Look for an open parking spot labeled “Visitor” once you drive west of the Health Club. Visitor spots are scattered along both sides of the corridor before it dead-ends at the entrance to the Boulder Creek bicycle path (pedestrian/bicycle access only). If you don’t score a ‘rock star’ spot in front or west of our 2890 building, check for “Visitor” slots west of the Health Club or return to SCD where you can street park anywhere that’s available.
