This one comes out of closing the box — forward, side, then a small tuck as you change weight, opening space to fake her out before stepping around and closing for real. It fits beautifully in vals. 💡 KEY TIP Take two bites of the cherry. Send her around in a pivot and wait until she's almost done before taking the final beat — that pause is where the magic is. 🎯 YOUR HOMEWORK Use the vals rhythm: quick, quick, slow — then try stretching that last slow even further. Let the music tell you how long to wait. See you on the dance floor! Study with us: https://twoflametango.com/

This week we explored the "right turn universe" — the pocket of space under the leader's close side, where three moves live: the right turn, the ochos, and the ocho cortado. You can enter from an open box or a rectangle step, and the cross is your launchpad back in. The key idea for leaders: think of this space as bringing your partner under your wing — leading her, caring for her, and protecting her from the rest of the dance floor. When that intention is there, the technique follows. Play around with all three options from the same entry point and see how naturally you can move between them. See you on the dance floor!

Hey everyone, This week we worked on a fun milonga variation of the box step — instead of completing the full box, you "check" the side step and come back, creating a moment of suspense: are we opening the box or closing it? The key tip for leaders: take your step first, then lead your partner's feet into the check. Don't just do it yourself and hope they feel it. Speak to your follower. Once it's flowing, try skipping the step back altogether — check, forward, check — and see where it takes you. Have fun with it, and see you on the dance floor!

The Zero Step in Vals A clear, intentional arrival No anticipation of the next step Fully finish the movement Think: I’m here. Double Time (Quick Steps) Light, rhythmic, continuous Creates energy and flow Contrast Creates the Dance Slow → quick, quick → slow Stillness vs momentum Example feel: Boom — boom boom — (pause) Finding the Pause Let the movement resolve completely Slightly disengage (take the foot off the gas) A small release back before moving again Challenge The step has momentum Easy to rush out of it Instead: Complete the zero step Then choose to move Focus for the Week Clear endings Real pauses Play with contrast, not speed alone Have fun with it.

Spirals Change Weight Spirals aren’t just rotation—they reorganize where your weight lives. Simple Exercise Sit in a chair and slowly look over your right shoulder. Notice two options: Just turn your head Or let it continue: head → shoulders → torso → weight settles into the right hip What to Feel The movement travels through the whole body The weight naturally shifts without effort No forcing, no isolating Why This Matters This is the foundation of efficient movement in tango. When the body coordinates as a spiral: Weight transfers become clear Movement feels lighter and more continuous You don’t have to “make” things happen Practice Idea Play with this during the week—in a chair, standing, or walking. Let one part lead, and allow the rest of the body to follow.

1. The "Thin Box" Mantra: Change weight, don't side-step. Instead of a wide box, keep your steps on a single narrow line. You aren't reaching for space; you are simply shifting weight exactly where you are. This creates a still-point sensation that contrasts beautifully with big, turning movements. 2. The "Pizza Slice" Mantra: Into the point, sink to exit. Think of your direction change like a slice of pizza. Move straight toward the point of the step, then use a small pivot to "sink" out in a new direction. You can make this angle as narrow or as wide as the dance floor allows. 3. The "Rounding First" Mantra: Round first base to reach second. When turning 180 degrees around your partner, don't step in a straight line. The leader must "round first base" to get halfway to second. This positioning allows you to pivot smoothly around the follower—who stays put—so you can continue effortlessly down the line of dance.

This month's focus is milonga — the oldest and most rhythmically distinct of the three tango styles. Where tango invites drama and a slow, searching walk, milonga demands quick footwork and a lighter connection, driven by a percussive 2/4 pulse that leaves little room for hesitation. And where vals flows in the romantic sweep of 3/4 time, milonga traces its roots to Afro-Argentine candombe — grounded, playful, and relentlessly rhythmic.

Walking to the Cross (8-Count Basic) This sequence builds out of the rectangle step. We open the rectangle by stepping slightly bigger and turning toward the partner, then walk forward as the follower takes two back steps, arrives to the cross, and exits. Creating Space for the Cross On the second forward step, adding a small side step creates space and makes the cross feel open and natural. Without it, the movement can feel compressed or “scrunchy.” Dynamic Steps We explored changing step size: small steps larger side steps softer, lighter crosses This creates contrast and flow instead of everything feeling the same.
