Antonella Terrazas Part 1/2 - Improving your tango, adjusting, and practicing

The first part of the interview with Antonella Terrazas. In this part of the interview we’ll start by exploring her early years and then cover what elements of other disciplines can help you in your tango, and what it means to adjust to your partner but not in a submissive way. We’ll also discuss the benefits of working without a fixed partner. I particularly enjoyed her answers when it comes to dancing or practising with someone that is not such a good fit.

Oa Metzner Part 3/3 - processed baggage, alignment & feet articulation, resistance & density in argentine tango

The third part of the interview with Oa Metzner. In this part of the interview we’ll cover resistance, density, lightness and heaviness in argentine tango. We’ll also cover how Oa would start again if she was starting today from zero, and we dived deeper into the role of processed emotional baggage in our dance. Finally, we closed by touching a bit on the importance of alignment and feet articulation and the difference between leading and following from the outskirts of the body vs leading from the core. 
If you haven’t heard the previous episodes, I invite you to listen to them too, before or after this episode. They were eye-opening for me, and I hope they can do the same for you.
