The Story of TANGart
In 2010, Theodoris Georgedakis and Evelina Sarantopoulou founded TANGart in Athens. What began as a dream gradually grew into a vibrant and creative community united by a shared love of Argentine tango.
Since 2011, TANGart has offered tango classes with an authentic Argentine spirit in the heart of Athens.
In 2019, internationally renowned Argentine maestros Alejandro Larenas and Marisol Morales joined the school’s management, bringing with them more than 27 years of experience in dance, teaching, and research into the history, music, and culture of tango.
Since 2025, Alejandro and Marisol have been the sole directors and organisers of TANGart, opening a new chapter in the school’s journey. Together with a new and dynamic team of teachers, they continue to develop the teaching of tango, combining experience, deep knowledge, and tradition with a contemporary,
human, and creative approach.
More Than a Dance School
TANGart continues to evolve and grow. For us, however, it has always been—and remains—
much more than a dance school.
It is a place for meeting, expression, and creativity. A second home where students and teachers share experiences, discover new possibilities, and grow together.
For us, tango is much more than steps. It is embrace, communication, emotion, and human connection.
It is art and psychology, body and soul in a continuous dialogue through improvisation. Through dance, we cultivate creativity, expression, trust, and personal growth.
Every embrace is an encounter.
Every dance is a personal story.
Our greatest reward is seeing people grow—not only as dancers,
but also as individuals.

Meet the TANGart Team
At TANGart, we believe that a great school is built by a great team of people. Alongside Argentine maestros Alejandro Larenas and Marisol Morales, we have a team of experienced and dedicated teachers who share the same
vision of authentic Argentine tango.
Christos, Emmanouela, Stavros, Angelika, Manos, Kimonas, Efterpi, and Ioanna have been an integral part of the TANGart family for many years. With extensive teaching experience, they have guided hundreds of students through their first steps and supported their continued development as dancers.
Each of them brings their own personality, sensitivity, and experience, contributing to a warm, friendly, and creative environment where learning becomes an enjoyable experience and every student feels
welcome from the very beginning.
Ioanna Papachristou
Ioanna Papachristou holds a special place within our team. She discovered Argentine tango in 2010, after ten years of classical dance training. She has been teaching at TANGart since 2015 and actively participates in festivals and artistic productions in Greece and abroad.
She is also a Spanish-language teacher with a particular interest in Argentine language and culture. Through seminars and cultural activities, she connects the language, music, and history of tango, offering students a deeper understanding of the culture that gave birth to this unique dance.

With her sensitivity and deep love of tango music, she creates musical journeys that inspire embrace, improvisation, and connection between dancers on the dance floor. As a member of our teaching team, she shares with students the philosophy that defines TANGart: authenticity, musicality, and human connection.
Christos Dimitrakopoulos
Christos Dimitrakopoulos is one of the main pillars of the TANGart community. As a teacher and DJ at our prácticas, he plays an essential role in creating a welcoming space where students can practise, develop, and gain confidence on the dance floor.
With his extensive life experience, calm nature, and human approach, he is a point of reference for communication, respect, and connection between dancers. He believes that every embrace is a new opportunity for dialogue and that genuine growth in tango emerges through community and shared experience.
