Today I learned that some folks in Ukraine are using the Tango to help them cope with the effects of the war. Focusing on their bodies is helping their minds get off the war, if only for brief moments. It was because of the story that I did a search and found you two!
If people realize if no one fight war for these evil people. They would be left with nothing but their own hands. Let God tell you what to do. No man should.
Your steps were by far the easiest to follow for my 5th-grade students for their tango performance. I wish all tango teachers made the steps as accessible as you do.
Hi Helen & Merlo. Last week (May 2024), I accidentally came across of your Tango Vocabulary. I immediately fell in love with your teaching, which is so concise, to the point, less talk, and plenty of actions. This is undoubtedly a great piece of work. I use it as Reference for all of my Tango practice. By the way, Helen's Gancho is impeccable!
"My friend, now I am traveling on the wings of happiness, knowing that I have a friend. I discovered that the waves of the sea are for me to sail. So, full of emotion, when I fall from the wings of happiness, I dive into the waves of the sea, which brings me to you."
They are emphasizing the box to show the different steps. On the dance floor, the leader will swap out side steps for more forward steps, and rarely take back steps. Then there are turns and so on to make it interesting and fun!
Hi I hope by now you have learned how to video tape. I am glad to find the lesson I learned thank you, but when you tape instead of face the camera your back need to face the camera or one of you facing and the other one facing the wall.
I just don't understand which legg should go first??? First time when you explained individually you started with the right legg, but after that when you danced together you started with left legg?
You can move either side. It does not matter. These are only exercises to learn how to move your body with a partner. There are no fixed steps in Tango.

Helen is so lovely and beautiful. I would probably spend so much time looking into her eyes and down at her heeled shoes that I wouldn't learn much tango (though I really do like this dance). ♥♥♥♥♥
