Urban Tango School

There is no better tango teacher in San Diego. As one who has studied movement and dance for most of my life, I deeply appreciate her body wisdom and awareness and use of natural principles of movement. Patricia is a fun, impassioned, and inspiring teacher. We are lucky to have her here.

Patricia is an amazing (life-​long) dancer, and an amazing teacher. Everything she teaches is fundamental for both tango novices and advanced dancers, and her classes are always a lot of fun. Very importantly, Patricia is absolutely great in pointing out not only what doesn’t work, but how to *make it work* (something which many teachers cannot do). She has many super useful and fun exercises up her sleeve, which can be done not only during class, but anywhere (and these are really important for making progress). I myself have been taking regular lessons with Patricia for almost a year now, and my dancing has ostensibly improved. It is absolute treat to have her in San Diego, it is a unique opportunity.

Patricia is a fantastic teacher. She emphasizes natural grounded movement and comfort for both leader and follower over fancy footwork (although she knows this too). If you want to really deepen the fundamentals and sophistication of your dance so you can get to the fancy footwork while lulling your follower into a smile, she is the teacher for you.

Excellent classes and teacher. Patricia is from Argentina and knows her tango in and out, teaching both leading and following. She is enthusiastic, breaks down difficult concepts into manageable chunks, demonstrates clearly, encourages and challenges you. She is not only a natural-​born dancer but also a very talented teacher. Look forward to taking more classes with her.

Patricia is a wonderful teacher! She is patient and kind but also tells it like it is. She won’t beat around the bush because she wants to see you succeed and grow as a dancer! The classes focus on exercise drills, solo work and partner work and you never need to bring a partner to attend, as they rotate partners!
Patricia can dance as a leader or follower, so she is a great teacher for both roles. The practices on Thursday are fun, informal and a great place to practice within the safe confines of friends who are also learning.
I’ve taken privates as well, which are a great way to work on technique and body awareness specific to you!
What I love most about the North Park Argentine Tango School is that they teach true Argentine Tango for social dancing! None of that «Dancing with the Stars» stuff that is an awful representation of tango social dancing.
Tango is a great way to build and tone core muscles, receive stress, express artistic creativity and make friends! You should definitely check it out here!
