What is Tango?

“Tango is Life”.

What does this sentence mean? It suggests that those that do not tango don’t know what life is. Can such a radical thought make sense?
But ask anyone who is involved in Tango, passionately, which is the only way to be involved in it, and that will be the answer.
This attitude in relation to Tango is rooted in the fact that Tango provides you fulfillment, opening you up to the possibility of making your life a work of Art.

Why to dance and why to dance Tango?

You dance because you are alive,and you dance Tango because it is a wonderful way to become a better version of yourself, for no other reason than counting the passing of time with a qualitative approach, in which we exert a constructive critical analysis of what can be better about us at every next moment. Dancing Tango is a challenge to improve. That is why we invite you to participate in our Four Intensive Two Hours Workshops "Taking your dance to the next level" at our three locations, starting on September 28. Click here. Also, the first audio version of our "History of Tango" is now available. Read and listen to it by clicking here. And more...

Now... COME TO DANCE!!! Our goal is to train our students to participate and dance comfortably at milongas. We decided to organize milongas in which we can put in practice all the elements necessary to a full Tango experience.

Advanced level workshops: Sundays September 11 and 18, at 2 to 4 pm.

Taking your dance to the next level:  Starting on September 28, at our three locations, four intensive two hours workshops on posture, walk, musicality and elegance understood as energy efficiency. For more information, click here.

Tango is Life as a work of Art

Ready to the challenge?

Since the learning curve of Tango never ends, what counts is our predisposition to keep learning.

Now, you are ready to understand a bit more about the value of Tango, the value of what we, milongueros, value; the value of being engage, present, aware of your own body -with its possibilities and limitations, and the window of potential for improvement-, aware of your partner, of those who dance around you, of those who -you realize by listening to such wonderful tango music- had worked very hard and passionately on its creation and development for around 150 years, since Tango began.

Among them, Francisco Canaro, about whom I wrote the following article. Enjoy it!!!

TONIGHT, classes on different rhythms of tango: tango, milonga and vals.

It is understandable in some ways that the sense of belonging to a group that contains the individual’s anxieties and insecurities is an important aspect to value in relation to be part of a Tango community, but this community does not need to be about Tango if the focus is not on Tango. What Tango brings to add to this need for connection, is the Art. Without the Art and the discipline that it demands, any gathering would ultimately exhaust itself in mediocrity.
