      Welcome to a lifetime adventure of challenges, frustration & ecstasy and limitless possibilities. You can literally travel the world with this dance and immediately share intimate experiences with the interesting people through the lovely embrace and not even share a word of the same language. Love in the length of a song or tanda. Beyond words! Hailing from Napoli, Italia at Margheritango, Salon Margherita.

      Uruguayan Style. No se sabe con exactitud donde nació, pero es un género músical y de danza desarrollado por artistas de las dos orillas, aunque habla más de Buenos Aires que de otra cosa, es posible que haya nacido en Buenos Aires pero es un género rioplatense influido por muchos géneros de las distintas etnias de América, Africa y Europa..

    • @tangomaniac1
      @tangomaniac1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Learning tango is much more than learning steps. Knowing how to MOVE is the key. The leader gets the woman to step FIRST so her leg is out of the way. He steps a split second AFTER the woman moves. If the man moves his foot first, he will kick the woman or step on her foot.

    • @joachimwrang-widen5366
      @joachimwrang-widen5366 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      As Tangomaniac eloquently summarised the sequence, the lady steps first. If there are feet stepped on etc, there is an obvious lack of synchronisation.
      The man invites/suggests the lady to move and she moves followed by the man moving, following her. Just as this excellent film points out. All preferably in a 1/100 of a second.
      The old question will remain: who is actually leading and who is actually following?
      Having started argentinian tango only four months ago and now spending many hours/week, it's very obviously an addictive phenomenon - you have been warned. Highly recommend anyone to start tangoing.

    • @AvantangoMedia
      @AvantangoMedia 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      OK, I'll try: tango was the first dance to fully exploit the close embrace of the dancers and their independence from other couples and from each other: dances before the tango were either separate dancers, (like the contradance) or in groups or rows (like the minuet), and when the waltz introduced the embrace, dancers mostly walked and turned, and their movements mirrored each other. Dancers twirled and talked. In tango the embrace, (close embrace, not like the waltz), allows the dancers to move their feet and legs independently of each other. It's a serious dance, no talking.
      This was new, and of course, scandalous! Until the French said "c'est chic!" and the rest is history.

    There is a remarkable difference between the real Argentine tango dance (Argentine-Uruguayan in reality) which is improvisation and the other tango that is danced in the USA and that is only a choreography like that of several of the examples in the video. If you have some experience in the dance you can notice the programmed of the movements in the latter, unlike the freedom that is felt in Argentine tango. In the tango that is completely choreographed, they can not do any step different from the programmed one.
    Existe una notable diferencia entre el verdadero baile del tango argentino (argentino-uruguayo en realidad) el cual es improvisación y el otro tango que se baila en USA y que solo es una coreografía como el de varios de los ejemplos del video. Si tienes algo de experiencia en el baile puedes notar lo programado de los movimientos en este último, a diferencia de la libertad que se siente en tango argentino. En el tango que es completamente coreografeado, no pueden hacer ningún paso diferente del programado.

      Los Estados Unidos no tienen ninguna, absolutamente ninguna, relación con el tango. Excepto el show circense que Hollywood y Rodolfo Valentino hicieran del tango. El tango es una expresión del Rio de la Plata, de la Argentina y de Uruguay, es una música exquisita, una danza pasional y una poesía sentida. Desde Buenos Aires, se exportó al mundo, donde se lo quiso y respetó. En los Estados Unidos hicieron una adaptación caricaturesca del tango, que no refleja en absoluto la pasión que expresa. De cualquier modo reconozco y felicito al director del documental. / The United States has absolutely no relationship with tango. Except for the circus show that Hollywood and Rodolfo Valentino did from the tango.

From Buenos Aires, it was exported to the world, where it was loved and respected. In the United States they made a caricature adaptation of the tango, which does not at all reflect the passion it expresses. In any case, I acknowledge and congratulate the director of the documentary.

    No entiendo bien el ingles aunque creo que hace una descripción bastante buena sobre la historia del tango, aunque la mayoría de las imágenes de este corto son de milongas y valses, si bien están estrechamente relacionados, no son lo mismo y cualquiera que no conozca demasiado estaría viendo algo que no es específicamente tango. solo es un comentario de lo que veo y puedo equivocarme, creo que no. espero no ofender.

      Why do you think Vals and Milonga are not belonging to the Argentine Tango??
      For Milonga you need much more rhythmic feeling and phantasie than for tango. and there are few people who understand Vals. Here on youtube you even can watch teachers who "try" ---who try -- to dance vals.

      Well, the entire dance is improvised. The man leads EVERY step. However, the woman has some freedom in her interpretation of how to do the step. The best example is boleos. Woman add their personality, playing with the music. The woman can do whatever she wants as long as he DOESN'T interrupt the lead.

      @@tangomaniac1 if you have a good follower the way she moves will also suggest how to proceed. Of course you can still lead something else and she will follow no problem, but it feels more like figuring out the dance together than just the leader giving the instructions. Like- okay, I wanted to dance this rhythm and do that, but with the quality of her movement and the way she did her decorations I want to actually maybe give her a little more time to whatever and follow her in it or maybe go into another step and follow the violin instead of the piano and bass as I intended to, because she moved a little more fluid and it seems more appropiate now. I think it should be more like a dialogue where you always stay open and listen to adjust your dance to what your partner is doing.

    If immigrants brought their music and dances with them that means that tango was originated from Europe. We all know that Argentina is half populated by Italians, so figure this out? Tango is tango and nothing else, in New York, Paris or Rome. Call it Argentinian or Argentine to separate it to New Tango (Tango Nuevo) or Ballroom Tango, okay but please give to Cesar what belongs to Cesar! Tango was invented by Italians and without them Tango music wouldn't have violin, accordeon and guitar.
    A bit like Paso Doble, invented by French because in South of France they have a similar culture and traditions than Spain.
