Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email hello@tangotherapyproject.org to ask about joining the Center City series, which started September 16 and runs to November 18, or register for the Cherry Hill series (starts October 10) through its Google Form..

You need to sign up first.

What to expect

Each class lasts about an hour and a half and includes a gentle warm-up, rhythm and balance work, partner practice, some tango steps, dancing, and time for refreshments and talk. Trained instructors lead the class, and volunteers give one-on-one support. The site does not list the class fee.

Tips for your first visit

  • Bring a care partner if you like, since the site welcomes them to class.
  • Ask about parking, seating and wheelchair access before you go, since the site does not cover them.
  • Ask whether you can join a series that has already started, because the site does not say and the Center City series began September 16.
  • The Center City class meets at First Presbyterian Church, 201 S. 21st St.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Classes are open to people with Parkinson's, stroke survivors and older adults, care partners are welcome, and each series has a register link or an email address. The site does not say whether late joining is allowed..
