Two words about Tango Canyengue (or Orillero)

Canyengue has the following attributes:
  • The lead and follower have bent knees.
  • The Canyengue is extremely playful and charismatic - often described as "incisive, exciting and provocative"; in the old guard of tango, it was said that the dancers had the 'Canyenguero mice' in their feet.
  • A characteristic is for the dancers to quite often walk together side-by-side or forwards.
  • Generally danced in close embrace, in a V-offset.
  • Both lead and follower share one axis.
  • Dancing is done with firm contact on the ground. Steps are small, historically limited by the tight fit of the women's dresses around the 1900s.
  • Canyengue makes significant use of the cortes, or stops - accentuated by the knees being bent. This is combined with a steady on-off beat (2/4) of dancing.
  • Another feature of the Canyengue is the corrida: small, quick steps to a run or almost run.
  • The joints from the waist up (shoulder, elbow and head) are much more mobile than normal tango, called body dissociation.
  • The spine is slightly soft, not rigid.
  • Contact is maintained chest to chest.
  • The follower is significantly offset to the lead's right, with the lead's right cheek in contact with the follower's left cheek.
  • The man's embrace is low compared to the woman's: The lead has his arm around just above the waist whereas the follower has her arm over the man’s shoulder.
  • Generally the cruzada is absent.
  • The contacting hands are often seen extremely low compared to other styles

Suggestions about dresses for dancing

Abbiamo ricevuto una richiesta ed esaudiamo subito. Ci è stato chiesto circa le taglie dei vestiti (come scheda di paragone tra i Paesi) e come si prendono le misure per essi. Il post era stato pubblicato molti mesi fa, ma lo ripetiamo volentieri. Ecco dunque due posts: uno per come si prendono le misure per i vestiti e il secondo la la taglia di essi.

We received a request and we accommodate immediately. We have been asked about the clothes sizes (like card comparison between countries) and how you take the measures for them. The post had been published several months ago, but we repeat it gladly. Here then are two posts: one for how to take measures to clothes and the second the size of them.

Мы получили запрос, и мы вместить сразу. Мы попросили о размерах одежды (как сравнения карты между странами), и как вы принять меры для них.Сообщение было опубликовано несколько месяцев назад, но мы повторяем его с удовольствием. Вот тогда две должности: одна для, как вы принять меры к одежде и второй размеры из них.

Nuevo Tango Claudia Miazzo Jean Paul Padovani "É VENTO TANGO"

This is what we consider "evolution" in dance: remain the form, the premises but changes the form, more actual, more futuristic. It depends of the personality of dancers. We (Mira and I) accept all variations, important be always  Tango!
