What is Neotango?
Neotango is a vibrant celebration of the ancient dance of embrace (tango) reimagined for the modern era. Each dancer brings their unique interpretation to styles like salon, milonguero, nuevo, and fusion, all set to the rhythm of contemporary music.
While we honor the rich Argentine dance heritage, our music reflects our diverse, global culture rather than the traditional sounds of the past. Studying the roots remains essential for historical appreciation, but our dance floors pulse with the beats of today.
This dance is a dynamic journey through emotions, transcending mere categorization of music. We forego the traditional 'cortinas,' allowing dancers the freedom to continue with two, three, four tracks, or more, and to gently disengage from the embrace whenever moved to do so.
Neotango nurtures the body and mind, promoting open-mindness and advancing the evolution of music and artistic expression across the globe.
It is a global movement of people where dancers feel liberated to express themselves through a rich tapestry of global sounds that can be embraced through tango biomechanics. It is an expression of freedom and pride in our shared experience as embrace dancers.
