Description

THE MANY BENEFITS of ARGENTINE TANGO

  • Gets people to take on an activity, a hobby, which makes them move and get them to socialize in an easy way.
  • Accessible to most since it is a Low-impact dance and does not require any particular athletic abilities,
  • Improves balance, flexibility, and coordination
  • Stimulates one’s cognitive functions
  • Improves one’s mood
  • Builds positive self-esteem
  • Gives the feeling of achievement and satisfaction.
  • A great ice breaker which helps shy people to meet other people and find their soul mates.

Now that you may understand better why it is so important to me to bring Argentine Tango in the lives of others, you may wonder how I plan to do that:
