Steve McKay

Steve has been a full-time tango teacher and DJ for eleven years. Before taking up tango he was already an experienced dancer and has practiced yoga and tai chi since he was a teenager. He’s been a regular at El Corte since 2000, attending seven International Weeks there. He’s also an excellent tango DJ.

With his spontaneous and dynamic teaching style, Steve’s classes go deep into tango’s core technique: frame, groundedness, balance, relaxation. He focuses on finding out what each individual student needs to make his/her dancing more enjoyable, and then provides concrete advice and effective exercises to achieve that goal. The lessons are full of humour and equally full of surprises for even the most experienced tango dancer. He specialises in producing exercises that are simultaneously accessible beginners and challenging to even the most seasoned pro. Sessions with Steve are always full of humour, gently challenging, and very effective.

These lessons offer a special chance to go deep into your understanding of tango, and emerge (if you work hard!) as a changed dancer.
