Please introduce me to tango!

Tango dance originated from a folk dance in central and western Africa-Tangono dance. 1at the end of the 6th century1at the beginning of the 6th century, tangono dance spread to the American continent, blending some Latin American folk dance styles and forming the tango dance in Mexico and Argentina. Later, tango was introduced to Europe, and influenced by European folk dances, three kinds of tango dances were formed in Spain, Italy and Britain. The contemporary international standard tango dance, formerly known as the Royal British tango dance, combines the essence of all kinds of tango dances in the world and enjoys the reputation of "the king of dance" because of its bold and unrestrained style. Tango has a beat of 2/4 and a speed of 33 bars per minute. Its basic rhythm is strong drums and exciting bang bang bang |. In recent years, its drums have become more prominent and have been changed to | Pumbaa |.

Adapting to rhythmic dance music, tango dance steps have the following characteristics:

1. The knee curvature is greater than that of the waltz, and the body drop is about three to five centimeters lower than that of the waltz (the knee is still loose and cannot form a sitting posture), and the dance steps are more steady and powerful.

You don't have to walk straight, you don't have to slide, you have to walk like a cat.

3. It's not a monotonous and repetitive SSQQ, but a fast and slow SSQQ*SQQS SSQQS…… ................................................................................................................................................ Coupled with a slight pause in the middle, the dance steps are patchy in speed and movement.

4. There is no obvious fluctuation, swing and tilt, but there is obvious reflexivity. Coupled with rapid and powerful torsion and left-right flashing, it gives people a firm and angular feeling. Waltz and tango are both folk dances, which show the love between men and women, but their styles are completely different. According to legend, Argentine male and female dancers wear short swords around their waists when dancing the tango, so as to avoid the interference of rival in love, thus forming the characteristics of serious facial expression, quick twisting and looking around from time to time. Because of its unique style and dance steps, the grip of tango is different from the other four dances in modern dance.

1. counterpoint dance

Tango counterpoint dance has the following differences:

(1) The dancer's knees are more relaxed and bent, and they are close together. The left, front, right and back feet are staggered by half a foot, and there is a vertical foot in the middle, which is not parallel and close like a waltz.

(2) The body parts of male and female partners extend from the right waist and buttocks to the right knee.

(3) The elbow of the man holding the female companion in his left hand is raised and the forearm is bent; Slightly enlarged, palms bent inward.

(4) The man's right hand leans slightly downward, and extends through the spine of the female companion to a position close to the lower part of his right scapula, and the right elbow bone is close to the female companion's left elbow fossa; The female partner's left hand is open to the male partner's right armpit, close to the lower side of the upper arm.

Step 2: Dance in the lateral position

On the basis of counterpoint dance, the male partner's upper body slightly twists to the left, and the female partner's waist and buttocks slightly twist to the right with the waist and abdomen, forming a posture in which his upper body slightly opens outward. The left foot of the male companion and the right foot of the female companion bend their knees next to each other respectively, and point the ground with the outer edge of the big toe. Their knees are folded in, and the male partner's left knee gently presses the outer side of the female partner's right knee.
