Copycats and Being “Unique” | Movement Invites Movement
https://movementinvitesmovement.wordpress.com/2010/06/21/copycats-and-being-unique
The essence of communication; The embodiment of music; The tradition of Argentine Tango. June 21, 2010. Copycats and Being “Unique”. By Movement Invites Movement. This intro comment is going to confuse people slightly: We’ve had our fill of hearing how everyone should learn and discover their own style of Tango. Be unique , don’t copy , etc, etc. How is a student supposed to do that now? Especially a student outside of Buenos Aires? This is an unfortunate example of how trying too hard to look and dance ...

The essence of communication; The embodiment of music; The tradition of Argentine Tango. May 24, 2012. By Movement Invites Movement. We wrote this a while back when there seemed to be a shared Tango consciousness regarding great teachers having or lacking the ability to be star dancers and star dancers having or lacking the ability to be great teachers…. Mark at Tango Beat wrote, “ Great performers in every art discipline are not necessarily the best teachers. Is tango the exception? 8221; Although we un...

The essence of communication; The embodiment of music; The tradition of Argentine Tango. June 5, 2012. By Movement Invites Movement. A recent comment on “ How We Teach and Promote Argentine Tango. 8221; and a recent email seeking to organize a milonga (in the “Nuevo” style) brought us to the realization that far too many people want to water-down or dumb-down Argentine Tango. Tango is perfect the way it is! Why must it be radically changed? It is our job as teachers to educate our students. They don̵...

The essence of communication; The embodiment of music; The tradition of Argentine Tango. February 8, 2011. By Movement Invites Movement. In our previous post. We wrote about a special moment that rarely happens in an embrace. It involves laughing. Perhaps this will lead many to think it is not a rare occurrence… because Tango is FUN! No, not really. We have been asked often why people don’t seem to smile while dancing Tango. Isn’t it enjoyable? Sex/love-making is serious business. 8230; and fun. The NATM...

The essence of communication; The embodiment of music; The tradition of Argentine Tango. November 9, 2009. Are You a Leading Cheater? By Movement Invites Movement. The best dancers are supposed to be able to lead anyone, regardless of the follower’s level right? We have always questioned this fact . How is this possibly true? If a woman does not know how to embrace the man, if she doesn’t understand what the lead feels like (in general), if she is lacking necessary technique, then what? The killer left a...
