Tango for
Active Ageing

PROJECT OVERVIEW

STEP-BY-STEP: Tango for Active Ageing is an innovative European initiative dedicated to enhancing the physical and mental well-being of senior citizens through the art of Argentine tango. By integrating movement, music, and social connection, the project addresses critical challenges like social isolation, reduced mobility, and cognitive decline. Backed by scientific research, we use tango as a structured therapeutic tool to improve balance and coordination while potentially preventing the onset of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Acronym: Step by step.
Call: ERASMUS-SPORT- 2025-SSCP- Small Scale Partnerships.
Durantion: 12 months.
Funding: Co funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
