How do you arrive at the milonga?

You hear the music.
You imagine the room.
Your body already knows something about how the milonga might feel.

Sometimes it leans forward.
Sometimes it tightens.

At times, your sensations may shift…

This Saturday, we’re gathering to explore these quiet, physical sensations we carry into milongas — the anticipation, the hesitation, the moments before contact.

We’ll pay attention to the sensations that arise when we feel familiar, seen, anonymous, curious, or exposed — and how tango uniquely allows us to travel, arrive, and connect across cities, countries, and cultures.

It will be a small, attentive online space, and I’d love you to be part of it.

If the question speaks to you, reserve your place now:

What is Tango Sensaciones about

Each week, Alla Petcheniouk and I, Jesus Acosta, come together in conversation, listening more closely to what is emerging in our work and what we feel called to share with our tango communities.

We would like to offer a small window into that process by sharing a brief extract from a recent exchange.
