It's a private seduction, a conversation of body language and dance, not to be shared in public, but between two people flowing with energy and music.
It must be simply danced, caught in a moment of immense feelings between a woman and a man. A deep conversation of touch and leadership in the dance we know as Tango..
In the late 1800's a difficult instrument to master arrived from Germany , the Bandoneon gave more life to the Tango and til today it still exist as the perfect marriage.
Buenos Aires early brothels and bordellos which later became known as Acedemies De Dance, were often raided by local police and to their surprise, it always turned out to be a instruction school
The dance was banned by the Pope after a private viewing and the dance was rejected by Buenos Aires upper class and elite, it was considered to be a dirty street dance of the poor.
By the 1900's a new style of lyrics made it's a appearance. A more sad , melancholy and since of lost, but yet the love for Tango remained.
The acceptance by the people of Europe meant that it was re-exported back to Buenos Aires , where it was embraced by the upper class. Yet the Tango has survived, and evolved thanks to the love of the people of Buenos Aires .
Tango Is still evolving, changing. A woman is free to interact with her partner and make proposals that the man decides whether or not to accept.
