Does Anyone Tango?

[MasterBlaster]

I got interested in this and was investigating - does anyone here do this dance?

I don't expect a lotta responses, but maybe there's one or two here that Tango.

I did a season of latin Dancing about 10 years ago. I can probably still do a few moves, but to properly Tango takes some real skill.

Why don't you check it out, MB? Once briefly worked for a woodworker who with his wife was crazy about doing the tango. Last I heard, they had moved to Mexico and were teaching how to do the tango. Apparently in South America there is a rich and revered history for it. If you get good at it, it must be fun. There must be a tango mind that a person gets going.

I've watched a few tango competitions on the tele. Have to say I approve of the ladies dresses, and good dancers are fun to watch. It looks quite disciplined, I guess the best people go beyond the discipline and turn it into artistry.

I guess it takes a certain kinda music? You just can't do it to any song, right?

 

[woodworkingboy]

The music is a major part of the history, I heard a program on it. Famous tango musicians.....

I took a latin dance class to woo a lady once. Worked like a hot damn!

I would love to learn as well! Have you ever watched Dancing With The Stars? The Tango is one of the dances they must do and it is always amazing to watch. While the music is a part of the history of the dance, they use all sorts of songs to complete the dance. You have to watch that show! The dresses, the dancing, it is incredible.

Hahaha. It sure is!
