Until someone answers with something unexpected. Then I\u2019m stuck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For me, tango is exactly that kind of language. Just with the body. There are vowels \u2014 the open, resonant part: axis, breath, uprightness. And consonants \u2014 the clear, shaping part: weight transfer, dissociation, the direction of an energy. From these I put together syllables, words and, at some point, my own little phrases. Those are my language tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The better I know them, the more finely I can chat. With Isabella, with the music, with the moment. Sometimes a single sound. Sometimes a long, flowing sentence. Sometimes just a pause \u2014 and that often says the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And at some point something beautiful happens: I start building my own sentences. With my rhythm, my emphasis, my way of taking a breath. My ductus, my handwriting. Or simply: my slang. That\u2019s my TangoStyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Figures? To me they\u2019re ready-made sentences from someone else. You can learn them and \u2014 if things go well \u2014 string them together somehow in rhythm with the music. It works. For a while. But I\u2019m drawn more to the HOW than the WHAT: the syllables a figure is built from. Then volcada, gancho or boleo come all by themselves \u2014 not as a quote, but as an answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s exactly what Isabella &amp; I pass on in class. Dancing, with each and every one. So that in the end everyone dances their own tango style.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For me, tango is body language \u2014 with vowels, consonants and, eventually, your own slang.
