Embrace Connection Tango Workshop

A meaningful workshop with a well proven concept for events and festivals.
The Facilitator
Diego Sanlor’s passion bridges the worlds of tango and music festivals. His unique journey began in 2012, the year he moved to Berlin and discovered tango, sparking a profound connection that has shaped his life ever since. This new chapter marked the start of a deep and ongoing relationship with the dance.
His love for dancing naturally led him to teaching, by offering tango workshops at various electronic music festivals and events since 2017.
Diego incorporates elements from other dance forms, such as contact improvisation and blues. By taking a holistic approach focused on connection, consent, and expression, his workshops become more engaging and relatable for festival audiences.
By redefining tango beyond its traditional confines, he visions it as a profound union of two bodies, transcending gender norms and stereotypes. This perspective stems from his belief in the power of radical listening, where partners engage in a dialogue of movements, creating a voyage that goes beyond the dance floor.
It is not just about learning tango steps; but about building bonds and enjoying the joy of dance together. A celebration which brings together the vibrant blend of music, movement, and meaningful human interaction.

The Workshop
The workshop is designed to be inclusive and accessible, welcoming everyone regardless of their dance background. You don’t need any previous experience or a partner to join. Just bring your enthusiasm and willingness to learn!
We start with engaging warm-up exercises, both in groups and individually, to get everyone moving and comfortable. These activities are designed to break the ice and prepare your body for the tango experience ahead.
You’ll be guided through the foundational elements of tango, including basic posture and steps. These essential skills will give you the confidence to navigate the dance floor and enjoy the beauty of tango.
The workshop emphasizes the joy of exploration and bonding with your dance partner over strict technical perfection. The aim is to create a relaxed environment where you can freely express yourself through movement.
Tango is not just about following steps; it’s a dance of creativity and spontaneity. The workshop encourages you to explore your creative potential and experiment with improvisation, making each dance uniquely your own.
Experience the meditative aspect of tango as you move in harmony with the music and your partner. This “walking meditation” state allows you to connect deeply with the present moment and find inner peace through dance.
We blend traditional and electronic tango music to provide a rich auditory experience. This mix not only honors the roots of tango but also introduces a modern twist, making the dance sessions lively and dynamic. Alternatively, the workshop can be taught entirely with electronic music like Downtempo or Ambient House.
The workshop culminates in a “milonga,” a fun and social dance session where everyone can practice what they’ve learned. It’s a wonderful opportunity to dance freely, enjoy the music, and connect with fellow participants.
Beyond dancing, the workshop offers a relaxed atmosphere to meet new people, share experiences, and build lasting bonds. It’s a time to unwind, socialize, and enjoy the communal spirit of tango.
