Argentine Tango in Chicago
AMERICAN TANGO INSTITUTE
Mission Statement
The American Tango Institute (ATI) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to developing social, educational and therapeutic programs and activities based on Argentinean tango. Our programs are designed to introduce the elements of tango that can enhance the human body by strengthening the core, and enrich the human spirit by inviting dancers to express and share profound human emotions with others.
At ATI, we believe that tango can enhance the human body and spirit. We lead programs and teach classes to show students how to interpret the music and communicate their emotions to their partner. Argentine tango invites dancers to experience the connection of the energy of body and mind, and to express and share some of the most profound human emotions with others.
Tango is for everyone and for all ages. Through our programs we spread the benefits of tango to school children, college students, corporate executives and senior adults, and teach that tango is a personal, as well as a shared, experience whcich can be fun, moving and enlightening.
