Welcome to Solid Tango
Solid Tango fosters a welcoming, supportive environment to learn and dance Argentine tango in Boise and the Treasure Valley. We offer beginner tango classes, practicas, workshops, and social dancing designed to guide dancers from their first steps to confident social dancing.
However, Solid Tango isn't JUST about learning to dance:
A Sense of Community
We offer a welcoming community, home to dancers of all ages and walks of life. Our events and tango classes in Boise give students regular opportunities to meet others, dance together, and build lasting connections on and off the dance floor. We are proud of the community we've built and look forward to you visiting us.
Real Connection
In a world of apps and distractions, dancing tango draws your attention to the here and now - to yourself, the person you're moving with, and the music. It is a place where you get to listen and be listened to.
Solid Fundamentals
At Solid Tango, we focus on balance, awareness, posture, timing, and clear communication—skills that improve not only your dancing, but how you carry yourself through life. By building these foundations step by step, students gain confidence and ability that carries over well beyond the dance floor.
