As in Thi-Chi, Tango Walk comes from a lower center of gravity in the body, called the
tan-tien.  It is located two inches below the navel in the center of the pelvis.
Learning how well you can move from this center, while walking forward as a whole
block, will develop sensory awareness and a nourishing energy; some relationship
between your body and the world around you.

Our special tango exercises with a balloon between the foreheads of a couple, rings on
the floor and shawls in the air involve circular, elegant and soft movements, reminiscent
of swimming in water. This fluidity gives definition to the body without the use of
external weight and slowly and gently increases your range of motion. Coordinating arm,
eye, and hand motions with the whole body creates graceful systematic movement
without causing strain to the skeletal system.

When our students are learning to Speak the Language of Tango Dance, they learn
through some special exercises, steps & techniques, how to build flexibility and strength.
Tango is a very intellectual and spiritual dance. Therefore, before coming to a Tango
class, every person needs to prepare some available space inside his mind.  
The Tango special exercises that we give at the beginning of each lesson move our
students through several cycles or stages of learning process.  

Each stage is designed to deliver specific results. While the basic moves remain the
same, the students experience changes based on how they adjust the focus, speed,
intensity, and overall intent. The ability of students to remain aware and responsive to
their body's ever-changing needs will enable them to receive maximum benefit from each
tango lesson with us, even though some would think that we repeat the same all over
again...

Argentine Tango is a passionate and intimate dance.
Also, we found that tango is very close to the ancient art form, TAIJI QUAN (Taichi
Chuan or TaiChi), dating back to the 8th century...
It consists of graceful, continuous movements combined with breathing control in order
to promote relaxation, balance, flexibility, muscle tone, and coordination while
improving participants' overall physical and mental agility.
TAIJI QUAN is based on traditional defensive and offensive techniques.
This is bringing us to some moves and positions in tango and their roots. The dance was
born from the combinations of many cultures and their folk dances.  We can see clearly,
that one of the main influences came from Italian Fencing.  This is how the 2 main
positions of tango were danced: stop or parada and cut or сorte.
Similar to Tai Chi, tango focuses on developing a relationship with your smooth, slow
dance, as a walking meditation.

Since the 19th century, Tango has been a dialogue between
partners, a way to create living art, and a dramatic form of
communication through movements.
