Argentine Tango in Columbus, Ohio (ATCO) is the only Argentine Tango student group at OSU dedicated to instruction and practice of genuine Argentine Tango at OSU. A previous group, instructed by Yuval until 2012, was converted in 2013 to American, or Hollywood "Argentine" Tango.

AsianTANGO (ATango) aim is to promote Tango appreciation and practice among Asian students at OSU and all people of Asian descent in Columbus.

ATCO and ATango are to serve the Argentine Tango needs of Central Ohio. We welcome all dancers, beginner and advanced, from OSU and the entire community. We study techniques of Argentine Tango (salon and milonguero styles; Tango, Vals, Milonga), practice movement, step, communication and rhythm, and organize Milongas (dancing parties). 





No partner needed, no prerequisites, no dress code, two left feet ok. New people are always welcome. Argentine Tango only. No other forms of "Tango".

ARGENTINE TANGO (AT) versus HOLLYWOOD TANGO


BALLROOM TANGO: THIS IS WHAT WE ARE NOT, 
AND WHAT WE WILL NOT SUPPORT OR TOLERATE 

 

  

 



ARGENTINE TANGO (AT) versus HOLLYWOOD TANGO


COLUMBUS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST CENTERS OF BALLROOM TANGO, OR AMERICAN TANGO. ITS FOLLOWERS CALL IT HOLLYWOOD "ARGENTINE" TANGO, AND BELIEVE - OR PRETEND TO BELIEVE - THAT IT IS AT. IT IS RELATED TO ARGENTINE TANGO AS VULGARITY IS RELATED TO REFINEMENT, MCDONALDS "FOOD" TO FOOD. REFINEMENT REQUIRES EFFORT. IT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ALL.

IN 2004 ARGENTINE TANGO WAS INTRODUCED BY YUVAL TO OSU IN THE FORM OF TWO STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS, TangoOSU FOR INSTRUCTION, ATCO FOR PRACTICE, WITH THE BELIEF THAT OPEN MINDED STUDENTS WOULD BE ABLE TO ADVANCE AND LEARN.


STRICT MEASURES WERE ENFORCED TO ENSURE THAT STUDENTS WOULD MAKE THE DOMINANT FACTOR. THERE WAS STEADY PROGRESS, HINDERED EVERY NOW AND THEN BY BALLROOM DANCERS, WHO PREYED ON THE AT STUDENTS IN VARIOUS WAYS.

YUVAL INSTRUCTED TangoOSU SINCE ITS CREATION IN 2004 UNTIL EARLY 2013, WHEN IT WAS CONVERTED TO HOLLYWOOD "ARGENTINE" TANGO, AND USED BY NONSTUDENTS TO RESERVE SPACE AT OSU OHIO UNION.

GENUINE ARGENTINE TANGO CONTINUES AT OSU VIA THE STUDENT ORGANIZATION ATCO (ARGENTINE TANGO in COLUMBUS, OHIO), PROVIDING BOTH INSTRUCTION AND PRACTICE, YUVAL INSTRUCTING IN THE SPRING SEMESTER 2013. SINCE SUMMER 2013 IT IS LED PURELY BY OSU STUDENTS, MATT AND RAE AND OTHERS.

PHOTOS ON THIS PAGE SHOW EXAMPLES OF HOLLYWOOD "ARGENTINE" TANGO, PRACTICED BY THOSE WHO OCCUPIED THE LABEL TangoOSU IN SPRING 2013. DO NOT CONFUSE THIS LABEL WITH WHAT TangoOSU USED TO BE  UNTIL 2012, NOW REPRESENTED ONLY BY ATCO, AND THE FOLLOWING WEBSITES (BUT NO OTHERS):
