1. Introduction and Background

 
Many people start Argentine tango, but only a few stay with it and remain passionate and committed. The purpose of this survey is to find out why. So, if you started learning Argentine tango and then quit, or are thinking about quitting, or quit for awhile and then came back, we'd love to have you complete this survey. But first, please note:

  • All references to tango in this survey specifically refers to Argentine tango and not other forms such as American tango, International tango, etc.
  • All responses will be public information. (However your name will not appear with your responses.)
