What happens in tango, happens in life. So let's talk about it. A podcast for social dancers and tango enthusiasts.
Why aren't there more women DJing in tango and what I think we can do about it
Tango DJing is a field that has been historically dominated by men. Many blame the tango organizers for not giving more women DJs opportunities to play at large scale events. But to my eyes, this issue is not that simple and points to some underlying limiting beliefs that women (myself included), struggle to overcome in both tango and in life. Musicality Training for Dancers & Aspiring Tango DJs: http://imsotango.comYouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/yelizaveta_imsotangoQuestions/comments?
