VIDEO PROJECT

Tango steps and combinations are fun and endless but there is only one way I can share it all with the world: with your help!

Let's dance this compilation of artistic movements in context. Choose your favorite Tango music and dance with me a heart-powered Tango in front of the camera.

The idea is not to create instructional videos, but simply dance salón-inspired interpretations of Argentine Tango and share it with the world.

I want to partake real Tango with real people in a global scale, creating videos that are inspiring and engaging to help improve their quality of live and elevate peace in world through social Tango dancing.

The Gist of Tango Steps

Experienced social Tango dancers understand that honing in on Tango steps do not make you a Tango dancer. Tango steps and combinations are not an art to be mastered, but just a tool at your disposal. Social Tango dancing is all about the connection with dance partners, the music and the dance floor. Connection is your most reliable source of inspiration.
