• Passion Container – Ⅰ frequently hear the word "passion" used to describe tango. Even those who do not dance at all will say to friends and strangers, "Tango is such a passionate dance." After dancing tango for more than a decade, Ⅰ would be the first to agree that the tango calls forth our deepest passions. However, it bothers me that "passionate" is sometimes understood as "sexual" in the tango world, even though it has a much broader meaning in other contexts.

• The Essential Tango – In Buenos Aires, Argentina, where the tango was born, they say that the initial "embrace" tells you everything before you even take the first step. Well, what exactly, you might ask, is this "everything" that can be learned in a mere instant of physical contact?

• Irene and Man Yung’s Tango Blog: Buenos Aires 2008 – Part 4 – Your partner can be a world-famous show (or even salon) tango instructor, or the most skilled follower in the local tango community, but she would still not come close to what dancing with a milonguera like Elba (or Susy Tilbe – Man Yung had a chance to dance with her on the first day of our first visit to Buenos Aires) feels like. "Milonguera" seems to be a state of mind that could be transmitted to the leader when the milonguera follows. It is a deep feeling, which also feels like complete freedom. You don't have to worry about whether your partner can follow or not follow, or whether something would be "too tricky" or "too plain" or "too easy" or "too difficult". The milonguera dances to enjoy the dance, she is not anxious about being able to follow everything that the leader is trying to do (even though she can, and she does), nor does she care. It was as if Elba had given Man Yung the order to "dance, dance!" and that was all he needed to do – to dance.
• Are You a Leading Cheater? « Movement Invites Movement – Why can’t Jorge make the follower do what he wants? The answer lies in the question: the word “make”. It is not in his nature, his personality, or his dance to “make” a follower do anything. If he feels that his follower cannot follow a certain movement, he simply will not do it again.
