Tango World Championship

02-09-2024 15:00

The Tango World Championship in Argentina is an international event that continues to grow in prestige.

Every year, couples from around the world participate, demonstrating their skills in both traditional and stage Tango. The event lasts two weeks and includes live music, dance classes, and social gatherings called milongas. The Tango, a dance born in the 1800s along the River Plate, has been recognized by UNESCO as part of Argentina and Uruguay’s cultural heritage. Competitors like Vanessa Giraldo and Jeison Ravagli from Colombia face financial challenges, but they believe that Tango is worth the effort because it strongly affects their lives.

According to a Tango maestro, the dance’s embrace symbolizes respect and emotion. Despite its challenges, Tango unites people through love, passion, and joy, making it an essential part of Buenos Aires’ culture.

Difficult words: prestige (widespread respect), maestro (a master or teacher), embrace (holding someone tightly with both arms).
