Somewhere between firming up and melting :: Tango Quote

On the subject of the embrace, or tension in the embrace...here is the entire post...

"Tone without tension, melty but not flaccid, presence VS "resistance", awareness but not micromanagement, assertiveness without force, grounded while also buoyant..."

Catherine Young (on Terpsichoral Tango Addict's FB post)

Tango is feeling that is danced

I've heard variations of this quote before, but I don't think I've ever read the actual quote until now, thanks to BoraTango. "The tango is a feeling that is danced. That's why it is not choreographed, though it can have sequences, like all feelings. You can dance love, rage, happiness, pleasure, every mood. The tango is not a dance to demonstrate ability but rather an interpretation of feeling. It is not just moving your feet and posturing. The tango is Argentine, but it belongs to all those who understand its feelings and its codes." [Cacho Dante]

I find my tango bliss

"I find my tango bliss in a place far deeper than a dance, in a place far beyond the music or the surroundings or the people watching, in a place of pure energy between two exquisitely matched dancers and the music, that perhaps I can never explain."
[Sally Blake aka Sallycat aka Sallycatway]

Me too.
