Some carriers, such as LATAM and Aerolíneas Argentinas might offer the option to land in Aeropuerto Jorge Newbery (Airport code: AEP), but that means you’ll need to make a connection either in Sao Paolo, (Brasil) or Santiago de Chile, (Chile) to clear immigration.
 

7. Are there going to be enough leaders / followers to practice with in the workshops and to dance with at milongas?

We’re aiming at a fairly equal number of leaders and followers in the group, but if numbers don’t match, we will provide enough assistants in class to make sure everyone practices the material that is being taught, and partner rotation will be encouraged in all classes.

Taxi dancers to accompany guests to milongas can be arranged upon request. Contact me via email for pricing packages.

Yes, if you’re traveling with a roommate or partner, both guests get a 10% discount off the final price, (US $230 if registered before December 15st, US $295 if registered after the early bird expiration).
 

9. What is the level of the group?

Although we cannot guarantee that everybody will be at the same stage of their learning curve, we’re aiming at a group of intermediate – advanced intermediate dancers. However, the material taught in class will always advance progressively, beginning with basic technique and warm ups, into the more refined movements that allow us to work with more advance dancing techniques.
