This is about the shoulder blades. People think of bending in their waist but really think of it more as pulling one shoulder blade down and then the next. People think of bending in their shoulders, but it's not about the shoulder socket; it's about the shoulder blade.

This relates to two larger principles:

  1. In the family of tango dances, the torso is always engaged and long.
  2. Typically, it's not about bending. Sometimes it bends, but that's not what it's about.

As you watch these videos, if it's not clear what something's about, please feel free to talk to us.
