About Us

Tango is our obsession.

At TangoZapa our goal is to entice more people to discover this amazing dance – its aesthetic beauty as well as its power to improve health and spirit – because we know it will do a world of good. TangoZapa is a tango culture and travel magazine packed with sensuous photos of dancers, tango shoes, and people, fun articles, social heroes, and little-known travel secrets of the tango underworld. Every issue of TangoZapa magazine will celebrate the global proliferation of tango by featuring tango dancers, musicians, and artists, telling their life stories, and stimulating tourism in the cities that support the tango community.

TangoZapa is a digital publication with special print editions offered on a regular basis. We are also developing an international Internet community space where dancers, photographers, hotels, tour companies, and other online tango stores, magazines or regional tango sites, can promote their services. In this cooperative environment TangoZapa will partner with all other tango-related businesses to provide comprehensive and easy access to people who want to explore tango history, contact favorite performers, or organize the trip of a lifetime.

From San Francisco to Istanbul, it will warm your tanguero heart to discover the dancers and community supporters who have made tango a global phenomenon. Through your travels and online interaction, you will forge connections to strangers who may one day become close friends. Each edition of TangoZapa magazine features several cities allowing the dancers of those cities to share their stories and favorite hangouts with you. Watch for our editorial calendar on this website. Your city may be featured and we may invite you to submit your photos or writing to create the next issue of TangoZapa magazine.

 And so, dear friends, welcome to TangoZapa.

 And thank you for helping to connect the world through the magic of tango.
