Argentine tango events are listed as practicas (relaxed, talk-while-you-dance), classes, or milongas (formal socials with floor etiquette). Beginners usually start at a practica or pre-milonga lesson - the milonga itself runs on a quiet code that's worth learning before you go.
Cabeceo - the nod across the room - is how dances are invited. Tandas come in sets of three or four; you dance the full tanda with one partner, then thank them and find someone new. The ronda flows counter-clockwise.
