What “make your life a work of art” means?

It is to choose to be completely aware of your life and to take full responsibility for it.

Often we run without being present here and now, we are anxious and empty our lives towards the expectancy of what could come; or we stuff ourselves with regrets and longings of the past; or sedate our existence, by being neither awake nor asleep.

To do this, you will need to work hard.

Alternatively, you can make yourself stronger, more beautiful, fulfilled, giving yourself purpose.

To do this, you will need to work hard. 

It is not easy. It is not cheap. It is not shallow.

I want to know if you appreciate/value/care-about Tango.

I want your answer to be not in words but in your acts. When I observe you in class, before giving you corrections I will ask you: are you satisfy with the way you are doing it (your walk, your posture, your technique, etc.)? If you don’t know what to answer, then I will ask you: do you like the way I dance? 

If you still do not have an answer, I will tell you that you need to make up your mind, make more research, find out.

What is dancing and why do we feel so at home when dancing?

Civilization has required the silencing of our bodies. Where, otherwise, would the indeterminable complexity of our anatomy would fit? A great split was initiated: the spirit manifested in words and our bodies went on to construct civilization. Words are easy to control: “Don’t say that!”. On the other hand, how does one prohibit certain moves? The entire body was proscribed from expression, there, where the influence of those who negate themselves could reach. Condemned to build, the slaved bodies danced in their creation of steel and concrete, through the machines they invented, with the technology they deliver to us. 

Now, we have accepted their invitation…

Dancing is the highest wisdom.

It is a philosophy of acceptance, not from the resignation of weakness, but from a strength developed in yourself by means of studying and training with courage and love for life.

You will dance only if you appreciate the value of dancing.
