1. Listen to the music and try to follow the beat and the rhythm. The Tango is generally a slow dance and movements should be smooth and unhurried. Try to finish each step at the end of the beat so that the next step can commence immediately, thereby giving the dance the smooth characteristic required.

3. Both partners should maintain good body posture at all times. The Tango is an upright dance; keep the body straight, the head up, the shoulders and elbows down and the man’s left arm back. Maintain tension throughout the body, do not be too relaxed.
4. Do not just execute the steps. Dance with energy and style. Try to add some emotion; men, be bold; ladies, be playful, suggestive or seductive. Use some imagination; remember, the Tango is more than just a dance.
Let me now define what I consider the 'basics" of the "sexiest form of dance on earth" as Jackie stated.
- The Tango “walk”
- Leading and following
- Rhythmic movement
- Floor craft
Do you guys want to dare to dance it? Fantastic... as the nike commercial goes "Put your shoes on, take a deep breath and JUST DO IT.

Haha, I've tried tango once during High School because they made us =[. The PE class made us learn how to dance and everyone was like, "Are you serious!?" Of course the teachers didn't really know how to either haha. I had a bad experience with tango during PE course. Maybe when I go dance I'll try your tips.
I like your direct quote :)
