Movie Reviews of ARGENTINE TANGO - Basic/Intermediate
Movie Review: Librero Argentine Tango Review
Summary: 5 Stars
One should be aware that the Argentine tango has, I think, a large number of possible steps, some of which are simple while others are more complex, which are linked together in ways that are creative, personally appropriate to the music and can be selected accordint to the dancers preference and ability. This DVD, especially in the beginning has the student learn set, basic steps, that to people who learn the dance from taking classes or in milongas, might be dismissed because the freeness of the style is not emphasized. Knowing that we have to use what we learn from the Librero's DVD and tweak out details in milongas or from instructors, my wife and I have found the Librero's DVD to be excellent. At times it is a little difficult to distinguish right from left legs because of the black color of Mr. Librero's pants, but this is a small issue as you study the moves of the dance; each step is repeated from different directions to help the student understand what the step actually is. Then the man's steps and the woman's steps are described. In the last part of each lesson, the Librero's dance to music. Beyond the fact that the lessons are clear, thoughtfully created and well paced, Blanche and Emilio Librero are really enjoyable to watch. They are so fluid and graceful. So buy it, watch it over and over, look for the subtleties - you'll see them - and get out there and dance!
