Teaching Argentine Tango

Video Transcript

"In this clip we will talk about my approach to the Argentinian tango teaching. Argentinian tango, it's an improvisation dance, and we learned it "abc", and then each of you build up their own words, phrases and poems if you want. So it's very interesting to have the tools to be able to build up this improvisation, and what's very nice with it, is that we will approach musicality, we will approach space, the space in between the couple, the space in the dance floor, and also we will approach quality of movement and choreography. So you can build up a very interesting choreography, and always try to surprise your partner. It's the idea of couple, it's not the idea of two dancers dancing together but it's the idea of one couple dancing; so that's what makes the tango so powerful. It's really an embrace, an embrace that dances, and it's what makes this dance special and unique in the world."
