Mira Barakat is teaching a beginner series and intermediate series in Berkeley, starting November 13th! Mira is a full-time professional tango teacher who is equally excellent at leading and following. She helps students create connection and communication in their dance, while explaining the technique very clearly.
The beginner class is geared towards total beginners. For the intermediate class, we recommend that you have been dancing tango regularly for at least six months.
This dance class is taught using the terms “leaders” and “followers” and is inclusive to queer, trans, and non-binary people.
