Are there different styles of Tango?
There is a lot of debate surrounding the different styles of Tango Argentino. In the broadest terms, one may distinguish between Salon and Milonguero style tango. Salon style is danced in a relatively open embrace, with both dancers keeping their own axis and an upright posture. In milonguero-style tango, the embrace is closer and the dancers share an axis, leaning slightly towards each other. Tango Nuevo style is danced in at an arms length in an upright manner with both dancers on their own axis with the leader using his hands to lead, The classes and workshops offered by Isabelle and Florentino generally focus on salon-style tango but also address issues common to milonguero style.
