About TangoHelena

"In social tango you move with your partner and with the music. The relationship between you and your partner is not personal. What is personal between the two of you is that you both are trying to caress the music with your feet."  Miguel Zotto

"In my point of view, tango is, above all, rhythm, nerve, strength and character. Early tango, that of the Old Guard, had all that, and we must try not to ever lose it."  Juan D'Arienzo

TangoHelena, Inc. is a 501C3 Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation. Our purpose is to promote Argentine tango and have fun in the process!

We have a staff of part-time teachers and a very part-time bookkeeper.  Everything else that we do gets done by volunteers, so we stretch a dollar a long way.

TangoHelena is run by a volunteer Board of Directors.  You can find out more about the Board and who the members are on the TangoHelena Board page.

The Board delegates a lot of work to committees, and we are always looking for volunteers to join with us on these committees.  The committees are:
