What is Connection in Tango?

Before 2018:

  • Putting you and your partner, with the steps, with the music…everything, all together, in harmony.
  • There are so many kinds of “connections”; you with yourself, you with the ground, feeling the music, the quality of the steps, the breath, the physical and metaphysical realm. And everything moves together as one. Blah blah blah!

2018:

  • I take it all back. Put your partner above everything. Your connection with your partner should be held above the steps (of course), but also with the music. You stay with your partner even if it disagrees with the music.
  • You could also say it’s awareness. You don’t even have to move together or even in harmony. As long as you’re fully a thousand percent aware of what’s going on with your partner at all times, you are connected!
