Tanguear supports tango schools, academies, and community organizations. Whether you want to join a school as a student or manage your own organization, everything can be done inside the app.
What a school or organization is on Tanguear
A school or organization on Tanguear is a group with a dedicated profile. It can include:
- A name, logo, and description
- A list of members
- Events organized by the school
- Broadcast messages sent to all members
Joining a school
Browse the list of schools and organizations in the Schools section. Tap on any school to see its profile and member list. To join, tap Request to Join — the school administrator will review your request and accept or decline.
Once you are a member, you will receive broadcast messages from the school and see the school's events highlighted in your event feed.
Courses, workshops & stages
Every school profile shows what it teaches right now, in a section called "Courses, workshops & stages" — open the side menu, go to School, pick a school, and you are there. The rows at the end ("Full timetable") open the complete courses screen.
The timetable is split in two: "Weekly courses" and "Workshops and stages", and a card at the top shows the next lesson coming up.
Each course row tells you:
- What it is — the title and a chip: Courses, Workshop or Stage.
- When — the next date and time (a weekly course repeats, so you always see the next occurrence).
- The price — "Free", or what it costs.
- Who teaches it — the teacher's name; tap it to open their public profile. A school can only name its own accepted instructors, so a timetable never carries a stranger's face.
- The level — Beginner, Improver or Advanced.
- The free spots — "{count} spots left", or "Sold out". If the school set no seat limit, no spot line is shown at all.
Tapping a row opens the event page of that course, where you can book or see the details.
A rule worth knowing: what the school did not publish simply is not drawn — no invented levels, no "full" courses that were never limited. What you see on a row is what the school recorded.
Creating a school or organization
If you have the Organization or Teacher role on your profile, you can create a new school or organization. Go to the Schools section and tap Create. Fill in the name, description, and other details.
As an administrator, you can:
- Manage membership requests
- Send broadcast messages to all members
- Publish events linked to the school
Orchestras
Musicians can create and manage orchestras inside Tanguear. An orchestra profile includes the members, the repertoire, and upcoming performances. Orchestras can also announce tours, with specific dates and venues.
