THIS IS TANGO...................

Tango is a body language. Communicate with your body. Listen with your body. Listen to the music with your heart. For the man it is important to be aware of your surroundings and other dancers. Concentrate on the music, so that it fills your mind.  This will allow you to interpret the music. For the lady it is important to submit to your body and the communication you are feeling. (but it's not submissive) After taking each step wait on your balance for the next signal. For both, it is important to step with the music at the same time. The signal comes first, then the step. Listen carefully to what the music is doing. Gradually the dance is distilled into pure pleasure. Be gentle , listen to the woman's body, her breathing, the beating of her heart. Lose yourself into the dancing.
