Tango Zen

Technical problems first 5 minutes of the show, but stay with it. It is a fabulous show!! TangoZen is about learning to appreciate traditional tango with the disciplines of Zen, synonymous with simplicity and clarity of body and mind. TangoZen is about teaching your mind to allow tango to enter your body. TangoZen is about freeing yourself from all critical thinking, about freeing yourself to completely be with your partner, about encountering the true joy of tango. Whether you have been dancing tango for many years or have recently begun to dance, TangoZen can play a major part in your growth. "There's this wonderful feeling of fluidity, of liquidity--just AMAZING--and so rare...and beautiful" is what one of L.A. & Buenos Aires' favorite tangueras said about CHAN PARK who is bringing his TANGO ZEN workshop to The Tango Room this weekend. TANGO ZEN is not about learning steps, it's about learning what Tango is supposed to feel like. Through gentle, fun, insightful exercises Chan Park opens his students up to new frontiers of emotion and all the possibilities Tango holds. Chan Park has been presenting TANGO ZEN for many years throughout Europe, Asia and Argentina. He hosts one of Buenos Aires' most popular practicas, has published a book on TangoZen. A documentary has been made about Chan's unique workshops.
