"In this clip I'm going to take you to a very passionate dance, tango, American tango. American tango has a lot of influence in the 1920's with Valentino, and the arrival of Carlos Cardel, a very, very famous tango singer, into Europe and the United States and Hollywood. In tango we're going to do, slow, slow, quick, quick, slow movement. How we do this? I'm going to start with the leaders part. We're going to go, forward, forward, forward, side, together. I'm going to show this again from a different angle. It's going to be, slow, slow, quick, quick, slow; again, slow, slow, quick, quick, slow. This is the American tango. Again I'm going to show it from a different angle; slow, slow, and tango, close; T-A-N-G-O; T-A-N-G-O."
