Catch Jennifer Jaymes and Martin Almiron on tour in the Pacific Northwest in June and July of 2026!

Martin and I are thrilled to unite our expertise from the classroom and the stage to focus on what has always been at the heart of Argentine Tango. While styles and cultures may change and evolve, the essence remains the same! Tango is, at its heart, a social dance. For that reason, our tour's focus is on Tango de Pista for the social floor. We celebrate tango in its purest form: the walk, the embrace, and the music. We will teach practical skills in improvisation, musicality, and connection that are immediately transferable to the milonga. Our commitment is that the tango shows we deliver should also reflect our teaching and values, with high focus on connection and improvisation. We believe the true magic of tango lies in accessible, high-quality social dancing, and our goal is to ensure every attendee leaves with tangible, relatable skills and experiences for their social dance.
