TANGO WORLD CUP & FESTIVAL 2011

TANGO WORLD CUP & FESTIVAL 2011

In square dance or in a disco you need to walk up to someone and ask them to dance. If get rejected is very obvious to everybody around you. You came back to your table empty handed. In Tango you can get rejected by all the girls and still nobody knows. The method is as follows: 1-make eye contact with your prospective partner 2-move your head to the side with a gentle swing 3-the woman can proceed in two ways: a) She stands up and walks towards the dance floor and meets you halfway. There you introduce yourself, take her hand and await the music to start. b) She acts like she did not see you…period. No messy rejection. No walk of shame. You just turn around and look for another pair of eyes to practice your “cabeceo”.It is sweet!! All the activities are free and open to everybody. Great opportunity to take up Tango, with the best instructors of Buenos Aires. I hope to see you guys “cabeceando” and you ladies stretching your hand out to them in the milongas of Buenos Aires. No rejections please! It is only a dance, plus, always remember, ¨It takes two to Tango”!!!
