Exploring Possibilities - Leaning Towards or Away
People tend to stiffen a lot more than they need to. So, if you think about the videos about lean, one thing we emphasize is the ease that should exist in your body. As you explore, keep this in mind: that your shoulders (for example) don't need to tense because your center's off axis.

Complex tangos sung in both spanish and yiddish with great authenticity.
From artist's website about one album: Tells the story of piringundines, from German cabaret to the Buenos Aires tango venue, and with the tango it will take us through a history of crossed destinies, and misunderstandings, love, and forget that we identifys as Argentinians.- 00:04
- So, we've picked... We've already laid down a set of
- 00:08
- Kind of movements that I just made up as I was going along.
- 00:11
- And now, David said,
- 00:12
- ""OK, we can do those same movements when we're leaning towards each other, like a lean,
- 00:17
- Or leaning away from each other, like a colgada, like that.
- 00:20
- So we can do all those same movements I've been doing,
- 00:23
- And we can relate to each other in similar ways, except in colgada.
- 00:28
- And we don't have to lean only in that one direction, right?
- 00:31
- So, we can lean along this axis, or along this axis, in any way.
- 00:36
- I think that's really cool.
- 00:37
- So, if we're here, let's say she does that same point-away,
- 00:40
- But this time, when she points,
- 00:41
- She leans... So, let's lean this way first.
- 00:45
- So, there's leaning that way. Let the foot go, too.
- 00:47
- Or, we can come together, or, maybe, she leans the other way.
- 00:52
- And the foot can go forward. It can go back.
- 00:54
- It can circle,
- 00:56
- There in that lean.
- 00:58
- And we don't only have to lean... We can do more than just lean away, we can lean towards as well.
- 01:03
- So, let's start a little further, and then from here, we can say,
- 01:06
- "I can still do all those things."
- 01:09
- Push, push, push.
- 01:10
- I'm pushing.
- 01:18
- And so, then, you have all these same possibilities,
- 01:21
- But you have these possibilities, well, in a lean, towards or away.
