Tango is the rythym of the night in Madrid

Madrid is a city that marches to the beats of its residents.

The tango, a heady, sensual, almost sexual rhythm, is delicate but sharp and has made its place in the city.

The molls and rogues of today trace this elegant dance across the floor, even in the 21st century.

Fishnet stockings and dangerously slit skirts live in harmony with jeans and shirts.

Words fall away as the body creates its own universal language … there are suggestive gestures, nuances in one’s gaze… the eyes can say everything or dismiss you with a nonchalant glance. The atmosphere is agreeable yet sultry and the room fills with unwritten rules make this dance more than a simple dance.

When you meet a man’s eyes, you nod in acceptance or quickly avoid contact. If you return the gaze you have agreed, no words are needed, you approach or he approaches and without further ado you are drawn into this whirlwind of feelings that carries implicitly in tango and there is nothing more.

The right thing is to dance three tangos or milongas and then retire, if you dance more than three rounds, you are insinuating that apart from dancing, you wouldn’t mind engaging in other indoor pursuits, whether they be friendly or something more.

It is also a super sensual show to see two men or women dancing together … tango was originally danced by men … and here in Madrid, a liberal and modern city, whomever wants to dance together, dances together… if they dance well, it can be quite a steamy performance.
