Welcome to TangoFlow!® The only dance-fitness workout based on the fluid, sultry and body-sculpting movements of Argentine Tango.
Picture the lyrical flow of 2 dancers, lost in the heat of their embrace...their feet carve loops and spirals as they navigate the crowded floor; his muscular torso swivels, letting her long, loose kicks, or "boleos," fly...TangoFlow!® uses this grace and beauty that define the Art of Tango, to tone and condition, systemically...giving you a tango dancer's body, whether you dance tango, or not!
Created by Cathy Salmons--dancer, teacher, poet and passionate "tanguera"--TangoFlow!® draws from a lifetime of teaching experience and expertise, to deliver a fully effective cardio workout that is also lyrical, expressive and FUN!
TangoFlow!® sculpts the classic hourglass figure, through the unique tango principle of "dissociation." Dissociation means the ability to move upper and lower body independently. (Think of twisting the lid on a jar, or wringing water out of a sponge.) Dissociation sculpts the waistline like magic: It's like doing a thousand sit-ups, only a whole lot more fun!
TangoFlow!® is about the music: the very latest in "nuevo tango"--a hip fusion of traditional tango with down-tempo, electronic "groove." VERY popular with young tango dancers in the clubs and "milongas" of Buenos Aires!
TangoFlow!® teaches true dance technique: grace, freedom of movement, body awareness and musicality. You are guaranteed to sweat, get your heart rate up, and tone your muscles. But most important, TangoFlow!® is fun!
Forget about "exercise"...get into the Tango FLOW!
-Judith Schwartz, Argentine Tango DJ, organizer, instructor and videographer
