DarkHorse Podcast with Iona Italia & Bret Weinstein

This is a long interview so they can drill into subjects thoroughly!

Bret Weinstein is not dancing tango but he still makes good and insightful questions and summarizes the thoughts discussed nicely.

My favorite reckless leaders with a matching follower!

 The careless freedom in their dance is a relief! 

Check it with your own eyes!                                      

Roberto Reis has been one of my top reckless leaders and Guillermina Quiroga is the perfect, adventurous match in this milonga!

Another reckless leader of a later date is Maximiliano Cristiani here with Jesica Arfenoni!

Gavito + Maria inspired OCHO-baridas!

Around 3.40 in this video Gavito and Maria do a fantastic ocho/barida combo!

The follower's knee is resting towards the leader's and when Maria's forward ocho is advancing the leader's foot is travelling on the floor! 

You can easily modify the size of ochos and be in heaven when the pista is hardly mowing forward!
(on a fast pista use something else!  :)  )

One couple among our local teachers were intense followers of Cavito teaching that style. I participated in one of their courses in 2005. That time as a follower. Lately I have had quite a lot of spare time to spend on my videos of workshop summaries. On one of the summaries, they used this figure but more relaxed with ordinary ochos with feet smoothly moving on the floor while bodies rested in apilado light. Such a beautiful way to move!

Let’s talk about pivot - In Silent Movie way! :)

A visual fantasy! - Crossed sacada and rebounds

There have been so many fantastic items popping up when people have time to express their creativity!

                       I just love the way these videos have been set up! Their steps surprises me!

Some take the heels really high! 

   For me, the pista is high enough!

Gustavo Naveira with amigos interview!

About learning Gustavo says this:

But the real point is:  if you take written notes instead of just making a video of yourself, it's true that you may never look at the notes again either.   But the ACT of making the notes will start to change the way you think about your tango. You will find a way to analyze and explain what you are doing to yourself in symbolic terms.  These symbols will become valuable tools for you to analyze the tango you do and the tango you see others do, and will remain at your disposal when you are improvising the social dance.  So the act of writing notes about your lessons WILL make you a better dancer, much more than the act of operating your camera.

About Ants but isn't this about NAVIGATION?

Isn' t this actually about navigating on the pista?

... but tango is much more simple. We all are advancing to same direction: aren't we?

Passive or Active way of listening for improvement!

Leo and his wife Flor have organized the Seoul tango festival for many, many years! Their teaching reaches even further back in time!

His main idea presented here is the most effective way to improve your musicality in dance: Are you listening PASSIVELY or ACTIVELY? that is the question!

How to analyze music and listen with full focus!

She uses and teaches this as a method for choreography creation! But it is not the only possibility!

This could help me to focus and understand what kind of musical phenomenon I like and how I would like to express them on a milonga! Not as a prepared choreography but like an instant intuitive move on the dance floor!

TANGO - PASSO 031 - SOLTADA

A figure for all ages!  :)

 Juan and Juana channel have a bunch of songs showing how they want to present the rhythms available. One of the pieces is a queen of simplicity with a repetitive pattern but still offering the listener a variation keeping the mind joyfully focused! It feels so to me;
