Description

Tango feels different depending on where you are - but is it the dance that changes, or is it us?

In this episode, I reflect on what it was like to dance in Japan, and the questions it stirred up:

What shapes a community’s embrace? How much do our cultural backgrounds shape the way we connect? And what happens when we stop seeing difference as wrong - and start seeing it as human?

This isn’t a lesson in technique.

It’s a reflection on culture, perception, and what we miss when we assume there's only one right way to dance.

If you’ve ever walked into a milonga and felt slightly out of sync - or sensed a subtle shift in connection when dancing abroad - this conversation might feel familiar.
