Lucia and Deniz Hazir
We have started dancing tango together in 2009 and since then we are following the footsteps of tango.
In April 2014 we have opened our own dance studio TangoVida in Bratislava’s Old town. We are the organizers of the biggest international tango events in Slovakia (Bratislava Tango Festival, Bratislava tango marathon).
We are the founders of the international free tango e-magazine gancho.
Our teaching program is based on the fact that tango is a language, a communication, accompanied by the beautiful tango music.
Tango is life. Life is tango. TangoVida is a new life.
Welcome to the TangoVida family! Tango is waiting for you!

Information for members
Membership
In the new season, starting as of 5 September 2022, we will have, once a week regular lessons in different groups arranged according to levels. More info below.
Groups
We recommend all our tango friends to join regular classes that will let them work on their tango systematically and develop their tango in time. As you know, lesson/practica/milonga are the three pillars that we all have to follow to be in good tango shape. You can still power up your tango with walk-in classes, festivals, marathons, privates etc. The groups below are defined by TangoVida. Please contact us to learn for which group is suitable for you. All groups are designed differently to have a sustainable environment for a growth opportunity in tango. That is why TangoVida is the only decision maker on who will join which group.
TangoVida keeps its right to change the participant’s group, with a mutual agreement, incase needed.
Beginners Group: Beginners pack (Začiatočnícky balík) is suitable for total beginners. It includes 10 lessons for 120 EUR/pp. No partners needed.
Group La Luz: After you have completed your beginner pack, you can continue your tango in group La Luz. The group La Luz is focusing on building fundamentals and new sequence vocabulary for the dancers. It is taking place once a week on Wednesdays at 18:00.
The price is 48 EUR/pp/4 lessons*. Payment should be completed in the first lesson of the month. We also recommend participants of La Luz to have additional walk-in classes on Mondays at 18:00 (12 EUR/pp/lesson) in order to power up their tango.
Group Estrella: If you are dancing between 1 to 3 years, you are mostly welcome to this group. We will have friends in this group who started to enjoy their tango journey and who need more to develop to be a better tanguer@.

The price is 48 EUR/pp/4 lessons*. Payment should be completed in the first lesson of the month. We highly recommend participants of Estrella to have additional walk-in classes on Mondays at 18:00 (12 EUR/pp/lesson) in order to power up their tango.
