Stronger back & Core

 

This exercise will help you strengthen the muscles of your back and your core. This, in turn, will help you:

1. Improve your balance

2. Start your embrace from the muscles of your back and thus be less tired when dancing

Please remember to protect your back by activating your core muscles, and taking it slow. 

 
 

Stronger legs & better balance

This exercise will help you strengthen the muscles of your back. If you do it with your tango shoes, it will also be very helpful for your body awareness and balance (stronger ankles). 

Please make sure you protect your knee by aligning it with your toes as explained in the video. 

Foot muscles for a more controlled walk

This exercise will help you develop the muscles of your feet, so you can have more control when you are transferring your weight. 

It is quite fun to do, and very useful, especially for followers.
