Learning how to slow down and enjoy a lyrical, soft and stretchy movement is one of the best things you can do for your tango. We often introduce this quality through pivots since they are the perfect element to stretch. We start with solo exercises for upper and lower body separations, practice effortless disassociations as a spiral, talk about the geometry of the pivot and thoroughly explain the leader’s and follower’s role and how we communicate in the couple. And a beautiful social dance fig
