探戈 (Tango) is a passionate and expressive dance that originated in the late 19th century in the working-class neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It combines elements of African, European, and indigenous music and dance styles, characterized by its close embrace and intricate footwork. Tango music typically features instruments like the bandoneón, a type of accordion, which adds to its unique sound. The dance is often performed in pairs, with one partner leading and the other following. Tango emphasizes connection, improvisation, and communication between dancers, making it a deeply personal and artistic experience. Today, it is celebrated worldwide, with various styles and competitions showcasing its rich cultural heritage.
