Why this

How your body sensations can expand because you suddenly pay attention to such a small thing like your partner’s hand on your back? How you can have a conversation without words with another human being? How to expand the awareness of your position in space and of your body’s movements? In a state of profound presence, you’ll find answers to these questions. And then, you can use them to make yourself feel extraordinary when dancing, as well as contribute to your partners, or students feeling the same way.

Geometry of Tango: The Body Posture & The 6 Points in the Feet11.52 min

How is a blueprint helpful? It keeps everything together, allows us to see the bigger picture, and enables a better communication... thus, a more enjoyable process and outcome.
