Dear dancer, For the end of 2019, let’s rewind a bit, will you? It’s Wednesday evening way back in 2013… I have just left a milonga, and instead of having that high I usually get from dancing, I feel insecure and frustrated. See, I’ve decided to improve my tango recently… so I’m careful about my […]
Dear tango dancer, There are A LOT of contradicting assumptions out there when it comes to the tango walk … that it’s only for beginners and once you’ve learned it you should focus on more sophisticated steps … that the importance of mastering your tango walking has been “invented” by tango teachers to keep having work… … or, […]
Hello dancer, Just wanted to reach out and say how grateful we are to have you in our community. We may be all about teaching you our tango technique secrets, musicality tips and connection favorites… But the REAL beauty of tango (and our job) comes down to how empowered and creative you are on the […]
Tango dancer, What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “Tango is all about connection… not about the steps”? Looking back, I can see when the shift happened in my own dancing. When I decided that I would focus on connection and being in the flow with my partner and chose *not* to be […]

Okay, picture this… It’s Saturday evening. You’ve put on your most beautiful clothes, show up at your favorite milonga, greet your tango friends, put on your shoes… You’re already getting excited listening to the beautiful music that’s playing but instead of feeling worried you won’t be able to fully express the music, you’re confident and […]
Hey there, tango dancer I’m sure you agree that not ALL tango movements are created equal, right? If you’re just getting started with tango dancing (and even if you’ve been at it for a while) that sentence might feel more anxiety provoking than a backed up airport security line. Because when it comes to tango […]
Tango dancer, There’s this “paradox” happening in the tango world… We see strong, independent women coming to class. They have a successful career, a busy life, lots of friends, great control of their body… They rock! And then, suddenly… They’re asked to become “tango followers” and are afraid of doing everything wrong! I’ve been there. […]
Dear dancer, I’ll be completely honest with you. Your tango teacher has been lying to you all along. I know they have, because we do too… See, when you start your tango journey, you teacher probably told you to use the center of the chest to lead or follow. Want to know the truth? There […]
