QUEER TANGO

Queer Tango is a new way to dance Argentine tango free from traditional codes. Its proposal is to dance tango without pre-established roles according to the gender of the dancers and to perform the exchange of leader and follower. Therefore it is related to open role or same-sex tango. The queer tango movement permits not only an access to tango for the LGBT community, but also supports existing possibilities for heterosexual dancers — women learn the lead, men learn the follow. Studying both roles, women and men enhance their communication and sensitivity.
