Alejandra Mantinan ( August 2012 ) reported on FB :
" Tango is not a sport, neither a job, it is art. It is not about knowing the best step neither dancing a trendy style. It is not about arriving first or last in a Competition , not being the most or the least fameous. It is not about studying with 1 or 100 "maestros". Tango is something more, gives something more, it transforms you into something more , because dancing it gives you the possibility to be happy while doing what you like when you feel it. To dance it and being Authentic is when you do not want to impress but express what you feel

"ESOS 3 MINUTOS MAGICOS QUE DURA UN TANGO , TE PUEDEN CAMBIAR UN MAL DIA... NO CORRAS NI VUELES, CAMINA... Y VAS A LLEGAR MAS LEJOS... NO TE APURES, EL TANGO TE ESPERA...HACE LA PAUSA, SENTILA, DISFRUTALA, DEJALA QUE TE ABRACE, Y CUANDO GIRES, HACELO CON LA MUSICA, NO ACELERANDO...QUE ES DIFICIL??? SI... CLARO QUE ES DIFICIL !!! PERO ES HERMOSO!!!!Y CON ESO ES SUFICIENTE PARA QUERER INTENTARLO..."
"estas son las la palabras de mi maestro... que sabio que es!!!

Walking on Tango & Life
by Sebastian Arce (21st October 2010)
Why is so important to walk the tango first? Because there is something in the tango dance that has no relationship with the figures and can not be learnt through the figures... What exactly?.. Because in the walk hides something that can be described as the smell on the right dish you prepare, the exact sky color tonality you are looking for while painting a canvas, the right sequence of notes while composing a melody, or the word that describes your true feelings while writting a poem... In the tango walk the embrace develops
as a main element on one structure that later will be changed NOT BY WILL but... BY FEELING... when the emotions are so strong inside the embrace that can not longer fit inside the tranquility or the excitement of the walk then is when body enters a different stage of expression...Teachers, dancers, and anyone! should start by forbing himself to do steps for at least one week, and you will automaticly feel the diference on your inner dance. It will not be easy...Your ego will play against you...You will feel that your dance is empty...AN IT IS...because, before you were NOTHING, or better to say, your dance WAS NOTHING... your dance was missing something important : YOU!After the emptyness, after fighting with your ego, you might meet acceptance, and with acceptance, PEACE...With PEACE, you will reach the state of mind that frees you from the structure, and you will not longer belong to your body but TO YOUR FEELINGS... from there forwards, let the body do its thing... you... YOU... just enjoy the DANCE!

Interview to Pablo Veron : "Reclaiming the roots ! "
"Those who believe that they dance "nuevo" are mostly using the same old elements."
