The moment is the choreography
about us
elonga….
is the consequence of a passion
for tango
for the dance and for the music
developed from the roots of tango
grown from recognizing the possibilities
with the courage to experiment
with a love for the nonconformist
with the curious eye of the unspoiled
By Michael Wittich
Organic Argentine Tango
in Mönchengladbach, Germany & across Europe
Contemporary, from the heart, liberating.
At elonga you discover contemporary Tango Argentino that works from the inside out, guiding you through intelligent body work into your authentic dance.
We – Isabella & Iwan – have been teaching our organic style across Europe since 2008 in workshops, trips (Germany, Tuscany, Lanzarote, Poland, Sweden, the Netherlands, Belgium, France) and specialised formats such as for women, for men and Eros Tango Logos weekends.
Our Teaching
In this order we focus on you and your tango:
1
You and your body
We begin with your (dance) body: its posture, lightness, mobility. With body-training methods that straighten you up from within. For security and joy in every movement.
2
You and the music
How do you connect with the music and make it visible through your body? For this we have developed mental and physical methods that bring playful lightness into your dance.
3
You and your partner
Your dance unfolds through the connection with your partner. How do you build it and hold it with your whole presence? Our technique lets both partners communicate as equals while dancing together and bring their tango to life.
where does this lead you?
To enjoyment and well-being while dancing, being able to merge with the music and give expression to your own feeling … and the figures then follow by themselves.
This is the order in which we dance and teach tango:
First you and your body,
then you with the music,
then you with your partner.
That is elonga – tango teaching with Isabella & Iwan.
