Tango Fusion Improvised Video

At the heart of Authentic Argentine tango is improvisation, through a powerful connection in embrace, expressing musicality from moment to moment. Improvisation is also a key tool in Ani’s creative process and her performance practice. Here Ani and Martin’s intension is to move seamlessly, sliding through classic Tango concepts, moves and lines, in response to Tango terms called out from the audience previously in an exercise and game we played together.  By breathing in and out of Tango and contact improvisation, Ani and Martin were able to express their unique found language.
