ABOUT OUR style

Tango without limits:
music, style, and expression

At Q Tango – Tango Nexus, we honor tradition while embracing innovation. Most of our events feature a 50/50 mix of traditional tango music and alternative tracks, keeping the dance floor both classic and fresh. We primarily dance in the tango salón style, but we understand the importance of adapting to the space and the community—whether that means dancing milonguero in a crowded room, or exploring the freedom of nuevo. All styles and expressions of tango are welcome here.
