Tango is an elegant dance with close, intricate footwork. The dance’s romantic style belies its difficulty. As the music builds, intimacy is played out in fluid movement. Danced in close or open embrace, the Tango reveals more about a couple’s relationship than words alone.
Film directors are captivated by Tango’s storytelling power: Think of Scent of a Woman, The Tango Lesson, and Strictly Ballroom.
Here’s a clip of Argentina’s best: Maximiliano Cristiani and Jesica Arfenonia, the 2013 Tango Salon World Champions.
