Somatic Tango
Somatic Tango is a series of experiential workshops for tango dancers exploring connection, attention, and awareness in partner dance.
We use simple movement and partner exercises to explore how we perceive, respond, and connect in real time, without focusing on steps or choreography.
The work is invitational and accessible to all levels. It’s not about doing tango “correctly,” but about noticing what happens in the body, the connection, and the space between partners.
Through this approach, dancers often discover more choice, ease, clarity, and presence in their social dancing.
What happens in the workshops
In Somatic Tango workshops, we work with simple, guided individual and partner explorations exercises .
We explore attention, timing, responsiveness, and how connection is created moment by moment through movement and walking.
The focus is on noticing what is happening in real time, how you perceive your partner, how you respond, and how connection emerges in the interaction.
Our approach
Our workshops are invitational, experiential, and non-judgmental.
Rather than focusing on performance or doing things "right," we create space for exploration, choice, and awareness in movement and connection.
Participants are encouraged to engage at their own pace and according to their own experience.
What dancers might gain....
Tango is more than movement. It is a continuous process of listening, responding, adapting, and relating.
The way we connect with ourselves and with our partners can influence our sense of ease, clarity, and enjoyment on the dance floor.
Through somatic exploration, dancers may discover:
more ease in the embrace
clearer connection with partners
greater confidence in role transitions
healthier boundaries in partner dance
increased responsiveness and adaptability
less tension and overthinking
deeper attunement in connection
greater emotional resilience in social dancing
Workshops
Listening Beyond the Lead
A workshop exploring attention, timing, and responsiveness in partner dance. Through simple movement and partner exercises, we investigate how connection is created moment by moment, noticing the difference between anticipating and listening, and moving beyond simply transmitting and receiving information.
Available for festivals, marathons, and community events..
Boundaries, Freedom, and Connection in Tango
A workshop exploring how boundaries support connection in partner dance. Through simple movement and partner exercises, we investigate choice, responsiveness, and adaptability, and how autonomy and connection can coexist in the dance.
Available for festivals, marathons, and community events.
Receiving without collapsing
A workshop exploring receptivity, agency, and participation in partner dance. Through simple movement and partner exercises, we investigate the difference between responsiveness and compliance, and how following can remain active, grounded, and connected.
Role Fluidity and Embodied Perspective
A workshop exploring connection through the experience of both leading and following. Through role-switching and partner exercises, we investigate communication, adaptability, and how changing perspective can deepen awareness and empathy in the dance.
Our workshops are suitable for tango dancers of all levels, social dancers, festival communities, and anyone interested in deepening connection through partner dance.
Let's Get in touch
As a somatic therapist, yoga teacher, and double-role tango dancer, I am passionate about the meeting point between body awareness and human connection.
Through Psykotango, I offer experiential tango workshops that explore how presence, attention, and nervous system regulation influence the way we relate, communicate, and connect through dance.
My work invites dancers to cultivate greater awareness, freedom, and authenticity in movement and partnership
