Gotta Tango by Alberto Paz
This work is designed for anyone who wants to learn how to dance the tango, individually or as a follow-up to a class. This book/DVD package comprehensively teaches how to dance the authentic Argentine tango, as it evolved from the streets of Buenos Aires. Master teachers Alberto Paz and Valorie Hart take readers on a journey through the rich culture, history and music of Argentina that inspired the passion, creativity and natural elegance of the dance. The book illustrates and explains the fundamental concepts and techniques, while the DVD visually demonstrates the lessons first as an individual exercise, then how this translates into dancing with a partner.

It offers helpful tips on how, why and when to do certain moves, including the six fundamental movements of the legs in the tango.
