Focus on Technique: Turns The turn in tango is often referred to as the “giro.” The turn or giro is defined as a turning step or figure. In comparison to a pivot and torsion: performing a turn isn’t so much about twisting the body but simply moving around one’s partner or changing direction. Directional turns can be used at any angle, regardless of whether this angle is big or small. From a basic figure, leaders typically take a step forward, but they need to step around their partner if they want to change the direction. Want to refine your Tango techniques?

Many of our clients are introverts. Tango is the perfect dance for them! Much of Tango is danced in a closed embrace. Outer expression matters less, and this closed embrace offers a physically intimate and inwardly oriented space for the dance conversation between a couple to begin - this is where Tango gets its name for being the most introverted of all dances. The aim is for the embrace to be a source of non-verbal communication for the couple through muscles, breath, and gestures while making them vulnerable to share with one another.

If you want to feel closer to your partner, what actions will you take? If you want to get fit, what are fun activities that you will stick with? Have a safe New Years Eve everyone! We can't wait to tango with you in 2022!

When Tango first began in the 1880s, due to the whole nature of immigration, the female followers were not so easily available to practice, or dance with. Men learned to dance together until they felt that they were good enough to dance with women. They worked hard to become good at Tango so that when they finally had a chance to dance with a female partner, the dance would be enjoyable for both of them. For this reason, men started learning Tango as followers, letting more experienced men lead. When they became skilled followers, and understood follower role, they would shift into the leader role so they could share their experiences with new followers. Today, we clearly understand that both roles are vitally important to the dance. And many people enjoy both - leading and following.
