A UofT recognized campus group, the Argentine Tango Club offers classes, practicas, movie nights, and milongas (tango parties). The club was founded in the spring of 2000 to provide the novice dancer (esp. UofT students) with an informal, pressure-free environment in which to learn tango. We also welcome non-dancer members of the U of T community and their guests.
