Hosted by Jutta Lenz and Beat Litschi, A Kind of Tango invites beginners, couples, solo travellers, and tango lovers alike to discover Argentine Tango as a powerful practice of mindfulness and self-awareness.
Surrounded by the peaceful atmosphere of Hotel Lilienberg with breathtaking views over Lake Constance, this immersive three-day experience combines tango fundamentals, body awareness, meditation in movement, yoga for dancers, musicality, improvisation, and playful social connection.
Through conscious leading and following, nonverbal communication, and mindful movement exercises, participants will learn how tango can open new pathways to:
Emotional clarity
Trust and connection
Presence and confidence
Self-awareness and expression
Joyful movement and inner harmony
The workshop includes guided tango sessions, mindfulness practices, partner exercises, a magical tango evening and milonga, practice materials, and opportunities to connect deeply with yourself and others in a warm and welcoming environment.
Whether you arrive with a partner or on your own, A Kind of Tango offers a safe and inspiring space to slow down, reconnect, and experience the healing beauty of Argentine Tango.

Dr. Jutta Lenz, MA
Psychologist – Coach – MBSR Teacher – Dancer
Jutta combines psychology, education, sports science, and 40 years of experience working with people. She supports executives, teams, and individuals in their personal development – drawing on her expertise as a coach, lecturer, yoga teacher, MBSR trainer, and mindfulness and meditation expert. Dance has been a constant companion since her sports science studies: Standard & Latin, Swing, Step, Flamenco, Jazz, Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, Semba – and finally, Argentine Tango, which has become for her the deepest form of interpersonal connection.
Those who dance tango regularly often experience a new lightness, inner harmony, and clearer decision-making in everyday life. Jutta wants to share this experience with participants – mindfully, competently, and wholeheartedly. Jutta and Beat's aim is to open people to the inner depths of tango.
