What people are saying.

  • Silvia is an excellent Argentine tango teacher who has skillfully moved us from beginning salon-style dancing to more advanced close embrace. Her sequencing and processing has enriched and made our movements more beautiful. Her choreography has improved our mechanics and instilled confidence to exchange partners at her milongas. We highly recommend Silvia for any student wishing to begin tango or advance their skills.

  • Silvia Askenazi was born in Buenos Aires and happily shares her love for her culture and for tango dance and music. Argentine Tango, though a social dance, can be very complex and intimidating to learn; Silvia breaks it down into small, easily digestible pieces, that even a non-dancer can understand and incorporate. She keeps her classes fun as well as interesting, and her kind and sweet nature keep her students coming back. Her weekly practica provides a great opportunity to practice tango and try out new steps. Her Milonga Porteña is the friendliest milonga in the LA area, very comfortable and cozy, and a great place to meet new dance partners, and enjoy Silvia’s delicious homemade flan.

  • Classes at Tango San Pedro are fun and stress-free! I have made many new friends by attending classes and Milongas. Learning Tango has enhanced my life on many levels. I love dressing up to dance and socialize at the Milongas.
