Tango

Look forward to this tango holiday with Patricia Hilliges & Matteo Panero.
Tango lessons take place in the morning or afternoon, leaving plenty of time for excursions and relaxation.
In the evenings, atmospheric Milongas await you on the finest parquet flooring.
We look forward to experiencing the magic of tango with you in this special place!

There will be two groups with a maximum of 12 couples per group.

Tango lessons

  • 5 x 1.5 hours of group lessons 
  • 2 accompanied Practicas to consolidate what you have learnt
  • Evening milongas

  • 200 square metre dance floor 

Dancing experience

This holiday is aimed for experienced dancers.
You have been dancing regularly for many years and are confident in both parallel and crossed systems. Turns with a stable axis, pivots and ochos are second nature to you, and fluid, mindful movement in the ronda is part of your practice.

Patricia Hilliges & Matteo Panero live in Florence and have been teaching on our trips for many years.
They dance an elegant tango de salon, which they enrich with innovative elements – imaginative and musically appropriate.
Patricia & Matteo teach even challenging content with great wit and didactic experience.

Hotel rooms
The rooms at the Schwanen are elegantly lined with silver fir and furnished with simple but comfortable modern furniture made by Bregenz craftsmen. They vary in size and location:
