There’s a great article in the New York Times this week about the efficacy of tango to improve mobility and reduces symptoms for people with Parkinson’s and other movement disorders. You can read the article here.

The Philadelphia Argentine Tango School is happy to offer private lessons for people with Parkinson’s or other Movement Disorders and their care partners on a sliding scale basis. We also work with stroke survivors. We accept payment from $0 (free) to our regular private lesson price of $110. A private lesson is 50-minutes long. If you can attend the lesson with a care partner, that is ideal, but you can also attend alone.

Lessons are given by Director Meredith Klein, who has been teaching tango for over 20 years, and has completed a Teacher Training in Adapted Tango for Older Individuals and Those with Movement Disorders with Professor Madeleine Hackney through Tango Mercurio and MDT Education Solutions.

To learn more or schedule a free first private lesson, you can reach out to Meredith at meredithklein at gmail.com or 617-291-3798.

The Philadelphia Argentine Tango School (PATS) strives to create spaces and events that are safe, welcoming, and inclusive for everyone, regardless of age, race, gender, sexuality, ability, experience, or background.

We’re very happy to launch a Safer Spaces Program to support this effort. Please check it out!

Huge thanks to our Safer Spaces Coordinators, Kate Donohue and Karen Johnson, who have been working tirelessly on this effort. They can be reached at [email protected]. You can report a an incident or concern here.
