Blogging about tango
While chatting at the milonga last night, someone pointed out that (apparently) there don’t seem to be as many, say, salsa blogs compared to tango blogs!? See, for example, the short list that I have built up.
Do other dances have a lower tendency for intellectual discussions? Is this phenomenon simply related to the type of personalities that are drawn to the dance?! Or perhaps because tango is intrinsically a dance that makes – for good or bad – people become passionate about?
Intriguing.
Improvement to-dos
Two things that I have been meaning to work on in my tango since some private classes I took last year, which happen to be at opposite ends of the spectrum.
- Slow down – less noise.
- Be less “safe”, and dare to make mistakes.
Youthful potential
Must be in a nostalgic mood tonight!? Two classic clips from Gabriel Misse, one of the maestros from the Sydney Tango Salon Festival (2010 and 2011).
Two legends: Gabriel Misse with Geraldine Rojas.
Another sweet clip from days gone by: Gabriel Misse dancing with Guillermina Wilson.
Today in tango
A not-so-recent find really. This website posts interesting tango-related (but not exclusively though) tidbits of information daily so far they seem to be able to their promise something new each day!
