We have heard about the fact that girls can’t get enough of tango dancing. The sensation they feel during the dance, called tangasm, get them pretty much hooked. But is the tangasm only for girls ?What about the guys? Do leaders sense the tango bliss ?
Everything starts with connection, yes…with a perfect embrace with your partner. Before you even think of preparing your first step, leaders…be aware of your partner, feel her arm gently touches your shoulders, smell her perfume, listen to her heart beat on your chest.
Tangasm only for girls ?
Also leaders sense the tango bliss and I show you how.
Start with some weightchanges to syncronise balance with your partner. Extend this moment even longer and coordinate your breathing. Good , well done.
Forget about all thoughts about complicated figures.
Tell your ego to shut up, no need to proof yourself or your partner what you are able to do. Just listen to the music and breathe.
With one opening step and weightchange, you can cover the first part of a musical phrase.(A)
And with one more step, a pivot and an open step, you finalise the phrase.(B)
Go on with simple walking for the first part of the next phrase (A) Finalise the phrase with a closing step. (B)
These simple moves give enough diversity for the follower. It will allow her to express the music in her personal and unique way. She has time to embellish her walk without feeling pressured. It allows her to express the music she feels with her feet.
Feel the magical sensation of tangasm.
The leader, once he has lots of routine, may embellish his walk as well. But with every fancy attribute you will add on, never loose the feeling part.
Keep repeating this 2 simple sequences. It is quite easy.
With training you will start forgetting to think about it.
Once you get serenity and confidence you will listen to your partner and the music.
