TLC Tango In Medicine Festival

Service Description

TLC is honored to host our healing Tango workshop in Medicine festival 2021. For tickets to the festival please see their website link below. The Workshop: 12 years ago tango transformed our lives, & introduced us to a world of human heritage that we adore to pass on, especially to those who like us, didn't think dance was a possibility for them. In this workshop we learn to navigate the world that is Tango, and what it has to teach us about being human. The grassroots of Tango were sculpted in Buenos Aires, Argentina, by the people for the people; risen from the immigrants, indigenous and Africans trying to find soul in the soulless beast of the city. The Milongas, where people gathered to play music and dance, were made illegal several times, given a reputation to be illicit, when it was simply a place of freedom… an expression of humanity without society’s expectations on class & gender. In Buenos Aires, Tango is considered a form a therapy to cope with the chaos of modern life. It is a place where we find communion through the universal language of dance and music. Join us to learn gender-neutral roles within Tango; embracing the texture that our lives tattoo into our bodies and manifest in our movements; what it takes to honour the responsibility of moving with another; and understanding & respecting personal space, and our human need for one another.
