Many tango dancers are highly sensitive to fragrances, so please don't use any scented products (aftershave, perfumes, fragranced hairsprays, hair mousse, deodorants etc.) when coming to El Ático. 

Photography and videography has increased at El Ático's milongas and some dancers have found it sometimes disturbing.

HelaTango is a warm-hearted four-day-long tango camp, organised by Tango aMoroso association.

In March, AdT organises workshops for members at El Ático with the guest teacher Viacheslav (Slava) Ivanov.
