Tango is a passionate, mesmerizing, soulful dance. Soulful music and sensual movements leave few people indifferent. That is why there are so many who want to learn how to dance tango.
How to dance tango
A man leads the tango. Therefore, the key to success in teaching this dance is to find a like-minded partner. Relax and be positive. The most important thing for a beginner dancer to remember is that there are no mistakes in tango. You can move faster or slower than planned, you can skip the movement and forgive on the spot. The main thing is facial expressions, a straight back, a raised chin and eye contact with a partner.
Remember that tango is not just a dance, it is a wordless communication between a man and a woman participating in it. Therefore, it is important to feel your partner, understand him and help. The woman needs to completely relax and allow the man to behave. But a young man should not hesitate to show all the charisma and passion in relation to the lady.
Basic movements
Most importantly, choose your music. Listen to it with your partner and learn to count the beat, separating four counts. Try walking around the room to the music, changing directions. It is important that a man and a woman walk at the same speed, falling into the tempo of the chosen composition.
When moving in the rhythm of tango, a woman should feel like a panther, smoothly and gracefully sneaking in the right direction. At the same time, the head is turned to the right. The man's head is directed to the left.
Keep track of where you are shifting your body weight. It should be located in the front of the foot. Straighten your leg more than when walking normally.
To start dancing, stand facing each other. The right arm is extended to the side along with the man's arm, and the left rests on his shoulder. Look into each other's eyes for a few seconds. Then, bending your knees slightly and turning your head sharply, begin to move.
A woman can throw one leg over her partner's leg. But this must be done gracefully and beautifully. Do turns and nice lunges to the sides.
Hands can also change position. The partner can run his hand along the woman's neck, he can clasp her around the waist, or run his palm from the shoulder down the lady's hand.
To create playfulness and intrigue in the dance, a woman can quickly leave in the opposite direction from her partner, and then return. A man, from time to time, lets go of his lady, and then gently, and sometimes even rudely attracts to himself, showing all the fullness of feelings and passion for the chosen woman. Spectators should feel all the emotionality and penetration of the movements.
