Details

Queer Dance Roanoke is excited to be partnering with Dance with Lane to build a Queer Tango dance community in Roanoke! Join us this spring as we learn Argentine Tango, a gender-norm defying dance where anyone can lead or follow. You do not need to have a dance partner to participate, we will all be dancing and learning together! Lane will provide tango lessons on 1st and 3rd Wednesdays for four total weeks ($48 early registration/$15 drop-in) and Queer Dance Roanoke will be hosting FREE practice sessions every other week to continue building your tango skills! Come early to enjoy food/drinks from Ursula's Cafe, our favorite pay-what-you-can cafe in downtown Roanoke!

More about Queer Dance Roanoke (formerly Kaleidoscope Dance): We are a LGBTQ+ centered dance community providing dance instruction and events based in Roanoke, VA. We believe that everyone has the right to know and feel the joy of social partner dance, and to do so in the fullest expression of who they are as a whole person. We queer dance by removing archaic rules about who gets to lead/follow based on their gender, and see dance as a liberatory practice, providing embodied insight into our own relationships and healing. Allies are welcome in this trans and queer centered dance space. Follow us for more dance opportunities @queerdanceroanoke on Instagram/Facebook!
