Couples Tango Therapy Workshop
This s not a dance class and not traditional couples therapy—it is an experiential space where simple tango-inspired movements open opportunities for exploration, communication, and self-discovery. The process brings awareness to unspoken dynamics, helps shift repetitive patterns, and creates space for renewed intimacy and joy. No dance experience is required—only curiosity and a willingness to explore together.
Couples who wish to deepen their work one-on-one can also experience Tango Therapy in private sessions.
What to Expect
Guided Movement: Learn basic tango-inspired steps that emphasize listening, leading, following, and balance.
Reflections & Dialogue: After each exercise, couples are invited to notice their experiences—how they communicate, what feels natural, and what challenges arise.
Practical Applications: Movements are connected back to relationship patterns, highlighting ways to bring greater empathy, presence, and responsiveness into daily life.
Supportive Setting: Each session is held in a safe, welcoming environment with opportunities to learn both from your own partnership and from observing others.

Relationships can easily slip into routine. The daily demands of work, family, and responsibility often leave little space for intimacy, play, and genuine connection. The Couples Tango Therapy Workshop offers partners a chance to step away from the familiar and rediscover each other through the language of Argentine tango.

Having participated in Katya’s Tango Workshop, I was able to experience the benefits that this kind of embodied work can provide. The movement exercises were a provocative entryway into the mind/body connection. They revealed the ways in which the body holds psychological distress. Along with her keen intelligence and sensitivity, Katya uses this body awareness to help heal psychological wounds bringing to her clients increased relaxation, peace, and well-being.
