  1. What, you mean “You know when you’ve been Tango’d”? Do you even have Tango (fizzy Orange/Apple/Lemon soft beverage) in the States? In the UK we have had some truly bizarre TV adverts for it over the years.

    Cha cha is too. All my life is cha cha lately.

  3. My wife and I were in Argentina this time last year to attend a friend’s wedding. The tango, as you can imagine, was a key component. What a seemingly simple, yet incredibly nuanced dance it is. Good luck and have fun!

  5. I don’t “get” Tango. I don’t understand why some people get pulled into the “cult of tango.” I do know how to tango very well, as a matter of fact, still I don’t understand the obsession because I find other dances more compelling. Anyone care to explain why they are pulled into the Tango?

  7. Well, for starters, my dance class is packed with hot chicks. And I mean *packed*.

    Of course, it helps that my fiancee is one of them. ;)

  8. Popsicle - Tango is an expression of love, life, pain, loss, - many things that celebrate the human in us… …but when combined with the music, the movement, the closeness of man-and-woman, it becomes an art in and of itself. Sure there are a variety of forms to display emotion, tango is a “way” to act out this. The music is beautiful, the dance is beautiful. In its embryonic state, the tango (and other dance forms like the traditional native american indian dances up-to modern dance like raves) was a means to bring people together to celebrate community. The tango is this but it also celebrates a closeness, a display of inner beauty that humans can sometimes suppress so easily but when unleashed with the right amount of subconscious fervor, is a feeling quite like no other - two bodies in/out of rhythm to music - from toes to fingertips, hip-to-hip, leg-on-leg - yeah it is all that and more!
