Tango-intensives and -holidays are a perfect blend of vacation and tango. Apart from the daily lessons, centre stage goes to enjoying the wonderful ambience of the surroundings, the relaxed socialising within the group and the evening´s dance after a fine meal.
Tango Holiday in Tuscany
May 17-24, 2025
Location
Villa Le Ferrette is situated high on a hill and offers a breathtaking view of the valley and the spa town of Montecatini Terme, famous for its thermal springs.
Le Ferrette is an ideal spot for a tango holiday, with plenty of space for everyone both in the house and in the outdoor areas. There is a pool and outdoor dining (or dancing) area and the estate is surrounded by an orchard, olive trees, pine trees and hiking trails. For anyone who wants even more activity, there is an area to play volleyball, football, basketball and badminton.
Florence and Pisa are both less than an hour drive, so that you can spend the free day sightseeing.
Classes
Detlef and Melina will be giving 20 hours of classes and practicas for 10-16 dancers with a good technical basis. The exact content of the classes will be decided upon together with you!
The classes are geared towards dancers with a solid foundation in tango: A good technical basis as well as a knowledge about musical variation is recommended. If you are not sure, if this applies to you, please contact us. We recommend registering with a partner.
We will dance on a smooth stone floor, but will lay a PVC, should the floor turn out to be difficult.

Ladies’ Retreat in France
August 30 – September 6, 2025
Location
Château d’Archambault in Burgundy offers charming rooms, a spacious park and a private swimming pool. A celebration of French lifestyle enriched by daily lessons and sweet minilongas. There is plenty of time to relax or explore the serene landscape with its many vineyards and picturesque villages. Noyers – the adjacent town – is one of the most picturesque places that we’ve ever seen.
Classes
This holiday is for women exclusively. We will focus on our embrace, musicality and technique together with other ladies. Extensive bodywork units, single exercises and work with a partner (change of roles) will lead to more relaxation, stability and wellbeing in our dance!
Melina will be teaching together with Varvara Kountouzi who has completed our Tango Teacher Training in 2017. Their combined experiences are not limited to tango, but encompass also Yoga, Spiral Dynamics, Dance Therapy and much more. Be prepared for a full immersion!
