The San Francisco Tango Academy trains musicians, dancers, and artists in the living tradition of Argentine tango — from its rhythmic and harmonic foundations to its improvisational soul.
Rooted in the belief that tango is both a rigorous musical discipline and a profound cultural practice, SFTA offers intensive instruction for instrumentalists, vocalists, and dancers at every level, while building a vibrant community where San Francisco's diverse populations find connection through shared artistic expression.
We exist to ensure that the knowledge, technique, and spirit of tango is passed forward — not as nostalgia, but as a living, evolving art form with deep roots and an open future.
