WHY IS IT SO POPULAR
The Milonguero style
The Milonguero style of tango is characterized by an intimate embrace that is maintained throughout the dance, creating a richly varied dance experience. Important aspects of this style include rhythm, which is fundamental to the dance, and a unique posture in a hug, which allows dancers to perform complex figures without breaking the embrace. The style emphasizes creating a flow on the dance floor, to which every movement and step conforms, to ensure a harmonious dance experience. The dynamics of the dance, particularly the dissociation between the torso and lower body, also contribute to the rich experience of Milonguero style dancing. Moreover, there are certain codes, organically developed within the culture of Argentine Tango, that are integral to the Milonguero style, promoting a unique way of interaction and presence on the dance floor.
Carlos Alberti, an authentic Milonguero dancer and teacher from Argentina with over 25 years of experience, is known for his expertise in this particular style.

He has developed special teaching methods for instructing the Milonguero style in Europe. Through his workshops, Carlos Alberti continues to promote and preserve the Milonguero style of tango, sharing its rich cultural and dance traditions with a wider audience.
