Learn Argentine Tango

"Short, it's an excellent tango course, totally worth the money. Long: The course consists of seven volumes and each volume has 19, 17, 13, 12, 13, 17, and 19 unique clips respectively, plus one clip for Eitquette repeats on each volume. Overall you'll get 111 unique clips from the seven volumes. Initially I was somewhat wary that the clips themselves were more on the short site; it seems that an average clip is about two minutes and the shortest is just 46 seconds. Most other courses have much longer units, so when you see a much shorter version you sort of think: am I getting full value of it or not? But after having watched the whole thing I totally assure you that you do. In fact, other courses now appear inflated :) A short presentation turned out to be a feature as it doesn't load you with all the tips that appear valuable, but are actually distracting. The clips themselves are a pleasure to listen and watch; they have very good music throughout the whole presentation and the teachers show everything in full harmony with the music. Just by watching such a tasteful rendering of the dance you'll learn quite a bit already. While the lessons themselves are just very good, the musicality course, #7, is absolutely superb. One of parts, "Musicality of the Movement" talks about a very rare distinction that almost nobody ever mentions, so for quite a long time I myself was not sure if I was just seeing things or there were indeed at least two principally different interpretations of musicality. And Alex not only mentions it, he actually shows you both, so you can see and compare. Yet another thing is that there's something authentic about the course. Alex started dancing in 1997, I believe, and he captured the tango as it has been reviving in Argentina but haven't yet reached the today's popularity that indeed attracted more people to it, but also maybe lost some of finer details and infused a lot of non-tango stuff. The shortcomings are few. The look and behavior of the application are somewhat dated. It's not that convenient to have to buy seven volumes separately. For some reason there is a duplicate of one volume sold as a separate product, but I was able to refund it very quickly. Also, there was a technical difficulty with four clips, they didn't play, but I've reached out to Alex and he was very helpful so we've resolved this backchannel; I hope they will also resolve it for the product as a whole. Overall I heartily recommend this course to any tango student."

"The whole series of these videos are an excellent guide to the social dance style of Argentine Tango. They give you a repertoire of of moves to negotiate a dance floor in a fluent and improvised way, They are not the sequences of dance steps that are of little help on a real and crowded dance floor. There's alot here to absorb and well worth buying"

"Clear videos and instruction. Good build up from easy steps to groups. Well worth the money. Works well on my Nexus 7. Yes excellent! John"

"Thank you so much, Alex!"
