Argentine Tango is an improvised dance - a bit like life – and it too requires us to learn to listen, communicate, co-operate and respond. It is a dance that is associated with vitality and sensuality, but it is also one that we can continue to dance well into our older years since it is based on walking. Dance has been shown in scientific studies to benefit us physically, emotionally and mentally, and Tango specifically to aid balance and functional mobility and to help prevent or slow the progression of diseases such as Parkinson’s.
In this class we study the physical techniques of balance and walking in the tango manner, both forwards and backwards and we explore this sensual partner-dance to help us understand the correlation between this technique and the mental/emotional practices of presence, connection, communication, clarity, receptivity and the meditative mind.
