Why Tango? 

Tango is a social and improvisation dance. It is more than a dance. It is a elegant, sophisticated, sensual, subtle, expressive and passionate dance!  The most amazing thing about tango is the unspoken form of communication between the dance couple.  Connection with self, dance partner, and music as well as creative decision and non-verbal communication between the couple at the dance floor are required.  The dance couple responds to the music based on their own interpretation of the music through the dance, allowing self-expression in the embrace and body movement.  This is what makes Tango so magical!  Tango – a endless path to discovery, it’s much more than a dance!

Learning Tango improves and enhances your posture, balance, confidence, and hence becoming more self-expressive and confident.  It builds your awareness of your body, improves yours sensitivity, groundedness and coordination, allowing the mind and body to flow and immersed in the music. It helps to reduce stress, relaxes and rejuvenates your mind, body, and soul!

Tango is great for couples or singles! It enriches your life as a couple and creates a wonderful bonding time learning together.  The therapeutic benefits of Tango has been used in couple therapy where trust and connection are re-visited and built.  For Singles, friendships are forged in classes and milongas where everyone speaks the same “language” and having the same interest, including meeting new people in a community and abroad , embracing new friendships!

In some medical studies, Tango has been introduced and used therapeutically for some Parkinsons patients to improve their body awareness, movement, posture and balances; to older adults to boost brain power to slow down cognition deterioration; to people with mental illness to help them regain sense of self and connection with others.  Overall, a great dance for health!
