genres, like fusion, contact, folk, blues, West Coast
Swing, etc. The ball have become freer and the music
becomes ever more diversified; as if all the improvised
dance genres could reconnect together.
A breath of fresh air, it brings variety, it gets us out
of the train daily. It allows you to think again about
your tango, and explore new rhythm.

ger than traditional rhythms. It changes musical
habits, with more surprise, more play.
