Tango Therapy Project

We aim to provide therapeutic benefit, improve quality of life, spark joy, and promote social connection through Argentine tango.

There is a robust body of scientific research demonstrating tango’s unique benefits for people with Parkinson's Disease (PD), as well as older individuals and people affected by other motor and neurological disorders, and mental and physical conditions. We aim to share these benefits more widely by bringing adapted tango programs to people who might not otherwise experience this unique art form.
