What is Tango Argentino?
The tango is a social dance form which originated in Argentina. While ballroom tango developed from the same roots, the two dances are very different in terms of the posture of the dancers, the importance of improvisation in Tango Argentino, the music it is danced to, and in their general feel. The exact historical origins of Tango Argentino are unknown. It is likely that it emerged in Argentina in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries at African-Argentine dance venues. It spread worldwide during the 1920s and 1930s.
