The Art of the Pause

We always like to say to our students: If you think you are pausing too much, you are just starting to pause enough!

Tango is a dance that encompasses the movements we do, don’t do, and each moment in between.

Pauses are one of our most useful tools in communicating and regulating energy in the milonga and in shows.

Some questions we’ll answer in this workshop are: When are the best times to pause? What are the best ways to suggest a pause? How can I better understand when it’s time to pause? And most importantly: What should I do when I’m pausing?
