"Tango is walking in an embrace.
For us, savouring closeness and constantly reinterpreting musical variety is the essence of tango. Discover a dance that has no need of passionate and erotic cliches, but instead is an adventure that begins anew with every embrace, with every step."

Melina Sedó and Detlef Engel teach and dance Tango Argentino, Milonga con Traspié and Tango-Vals worldwide.

Stylistically, they are at home in the traditional tango de salón, as it is danced in Buenos Aires, and which they interpret in a very personal and modern way. Their dance captivates through its intimate embrace, playful musicality and an almost puristic elegance: a sensual interplay of man and woman without cliché or superficial effect. Thus, their tango is newly created in every single moment, and does not just express the music, but genuine feeling.

At the core of their lessons, which are always geared towards improvisational capability, are intensive body work and analysis of tango's structures. But „technical“ understanding is just a means to concentrate better on the essential: developing one´s own style and relishing the embrace in unison with the music.

Detlef's and Melina's homeregion is SaarLorLux+, where their dedication and their unique teaching concept set standards over the years 2001 - 2007. They still work there as organizers: their events have become a fixture of local tango culture and have inspired visitors from near and far.

Today, Melina and Detlef teach and perform internationally wherever people want to tango with sense and sensitivity, and this summer we look forward to being delighted with their presence, classes and performance at Tango del Mar.
