Tango Berretin 6305 Southeast Foster Road, Portland, OR 97206

"This is THE place to go for anything tango related in Portland (in Oregon, and arguably in the country)! The studio itself is full of character and serves as a monument to Argentine Tango dance, music, and culture. Tango Berretin has regular tango dance lessons, parties (called milongas), and occasionally live tango music. Alex, who runs Tango Berretin is a great teacher, musician, and all around good guy! I can't recommend this place enough for anyone who has an interest in Argentine Tango!"

"This was a fun night out. My wife and I went to the class and it was great for beginners. Met folks with all kinds of experience and everyone was great about teaching tango. They had free snacks too which was nice after the dancing. I'd recommend trying the class if you haven't done it before"

"The beginner private lesson I took with Alex was excellent. Although I am new to tango dance, I have taught music for 10 years and can recognize a wonderful teacher. He broke everything down into easy-to understand language with a focus on technique, making sure I could replicate what he was demonstrating correctly before moving on. He also gave me many useful exercises to work on by myself."

"Alex Krebs is pure genius--as a dancer, as a teacher, as a community builder, and as a delightful, witty, and charming human being. Portland boasts one of the premier tango communities in the USA, and Krebs is a good part of the reason why. If you have an ounce of heart and soul, you'll love Alex, and you'll love Argentine tango. What are you waiting for?!"

"Alex Krebs is one of the most community-centered venue owners in Portland. Tango Berretin is dancer-owned real estate, making it a rare gem in the dance world. Rates and expectations are reasonable. Highly recommend this venue for your weekly, monthly, or twice-monthly events."
