Jorge’s approach to teaching tango accentuates:
– Providing elements necessary for development in the dance, which for him is both fragile as well as complex – while also searching for the aesthetic which suits each dancer, posture of the body, embrace, arms
– Achieving the precision in the movement expression and rhythm
– Working with the structure in order to have a language which allows one to access improvisation
