It Takes Two To Tango
By: Lauren Tallman / Erotic Las Vegas
Chin up, chest out, look into your partner’s eyes,
and float across the floor dancing the sensual
tango. Enjoy the moments of intimacy, without
strings attached, while escaping into an exotic world.
The fluidity and cat-like staccato bring drama into the stimulating
dance. Movements are slow and arousing, the music drawing you into
dips, dives, and turns.
“We change lives through dance,” Tiffany Higgins, co-owner of the
franchise at the Las Vegas Arthur Murray Dance Center in Henderson,
said. “We have new and experienced dancers aged 50-80 who come here
for exercise, meet people, make friends, and build confidence. We had an
85-year-old woman who danced here until the age of 100. She told others,
‘If you want to stay young, dance.’”
Dancing is a hobby and a healthy habit, improving the dancer’s
balance and brain function. At the Center, seniors are taught the sexy
Argentine Tango, the Cha-cha, Salsa, Swing, and Latin Bachata by highly
trained teachers. Dance students connect with old and new partners
learning steps, techniques, and passionate gestures.
Seniors come for date nights, four to five times a week, dancing the
flowing Foxtrot, weaving Waltz, measured Mambo, or rhythmic Rumba.
Many dance to the high-speed Hustle, or the let-loose Line Dancing.
Dancers also participate in the four major dance events held annually
at the Center.
“Argentine Tango is different from other social dances, like Ballroom
Tango,” reports Bryarly McEachern with the VTDigger. “First, there is the
embrace. In Ballroom, partners arch their upper bodies away from each
other, but in Argentine Tango, the chests lean in, even touching if you are
using the close embrace.
“People who have found their way to Argentine Tango are unabashed
in telling you what they love about the dance. Some have found their
soulmate through tango, others say that it rekindled their love for life,
and many claim that Tango has made them a better person, transforming
their relationships to themselves and others.”
Nothing is more titillating than the physical touch when dancing the
tango. Book a class, raise your arm out to the side, rest your hand in your
partner’s, and dance the language of love.
