The Legacy. Chapter I. Roots of our Tango

If being a woman is about trust, intuition, the power of connection and the art of shaping the space; and if being a man is about freedom and holding the space, about the power of knowledge and understanding, then this collection is about being a man and a woman embracing each other in the space of a tango. It’s a collection that will induct tango into your body and soul through the stories of Carlos & Rosa Perez, men and women technique, and lessons on fundamentals.
