Looking for something new and genuinely romantic to help you express your true feelings this Valentine's Day? Send all the right signals with a glass of wine, a sweet dessert, and 45 minutes of holding your sweetie close during a private tango lesson. As tango music fills the air and dancing couples set the scene, you and your loved one will nestle into a candle lit dance studio. At your side, ready to smooth your way onto the dance floor, a professional dance teacher from Sway Dance Chicago will be waiting just for you. Your personal teacher will be standing by to step in whenever you are ready to perfect a new move, and then to step back to let you savor the moment (and another sip of wine).

Lessons are available Friday Febrary 10th, Tuesday February 14th and Friday February 17th.

If you are celebrating Valentine’s Day on a different date, let us know. We may be able to accommodate your schedule.
