thank you for accepting the constructive...Turenne,<br /><br />thank you for accepting the constructive criticism. As a "cosmopolitan girl", dancing tango the one Martin is referring to, let me suggest some videos to "correct" your impression(s) and infect you with the feverish virus that makes me travel throughout Europe in 11 out 12 months :-)<br />Let me introduce you to the connection one can make by "teaming up" with somebody by the blink of an eye no matter what time, which place and whom you're dancing with.<br />Please start with this http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=-p7KO7xu0EQ (Italian-French couple performing in southern Germany)and search for the music by following either his or her feet (steps). Go on with this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sna9fv95hvQ (Argentine couple performing in London) and finish with this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYrRxh4bnlk (Argentine couple performing in the USA).<br /><br />Regards, the ATfE <br />(anonymous tanguera from Europe)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194963909418512163.post-90725545038283058772011-12-16T10:16:40.678-05:002011-12-16T10:16:40.678-05:00Martin, I am really pleased about the information ...Martin, I am really pleased about the information you provide as to how Tango is use in your practice as a professional movement therapist since this very concise article did not give such detail. Tango is a marvellous dance. I can feel and respect you passion and concern for the right information to be shared as well as the truthfullness of the culture. <br /><br />You are absolutely right about Argentine Tango and your precisions are value added information for everyone. At a very introductory level, this article emphasize the spread of Tango in the world (particularly popularized american, Uruguay, ballroom, Finnish and even Vaudeville theater) and the videos illustrates this actual diversity. The title of the first video, the Cadombe, is confusing and it is a controversial reality. The links in the article, for those interested, brings to deeper information about Tango. Also, your reference to Christine Denniston's book is most valuable for everybody who wants to learn more. I certainly will read it...<br /><br />Thank you so much for your contribution...!!!Tilarenn Solèyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05040384330865723973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2194963909418512163.post-40379885205340061052011-12-13T10:33:51.428-05:002011-12-13T10:33:51.428-05:00Hello:

Even more, the first one is not a tango, it is a Candombe, in Argentina and in Uruguay, and the candombe is a rhythm for the murgas / carnival.<br />Soumalainen tango is not an Argentinean tango either; it is the nort-american version of the tango, called also tangó and Rodolfo Valentino popularized it.<br />If you want to know about tango I will recommend you a book called “The meaning of TANGO, the story of the Argentinean dance” by Christine Denniston.<br />If you want to see real tango, you must go to “not for tourism” milongas in argentina.<br />It is also very important to know that the tango that we use in order to help people with Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and older people is NOT this tango.<br />It is a special developed technique that use special exercises, very special selected tangos and delivered by professional therapists, no tango dancers or tango teachers.<br /><br />Martin Sotelano<br />Co-director Tango Therapy UK<br />Chairman International Assoc. of Tango TherapyMartin Sotelanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08555541960936656279noreply@blogger.com
