Takeaways

Balance is an intrinsic property of the body and can be improved through focused practice.

Alignment plays a crucial role in maintaining balance and stability.

Tango can be seen as controlled falling, where the goal is to approximate the best place to land and be balanced.

Developing balance through solo movement and exploring one's own mechanics is essential.

Modulating the embrace and adapting to the partner's movements can help maintain balance while dancing.
