"The
Tao of Tango is ... the
ultimate self-help book on the way men and women view relationships.
Written specifically to be accessible to both
genders, The Tao Of Tango includes physical exercises to heighten the
senses. Author Johanna Siegmann compares male and female energy, also known as
Yang and Yin, to archetypal Tango dancers, and from this draws insight for the
reader to ponder long after he or she finishes this slim book. Fresh, unique,
and definitely a brand new twist on the Tango."

"Using
Tango as a metaphor for communication and the Tango dancers as representations
of male and female energy, this book strives to help people find balance
and harmony in their own lives."

"The
Tao of Tango, almost a cult book on tango by Johanna Siegmann,
who found dance and its connection to Taoism and made it into a little book
everybody in tango should have a copy of. A great gift for anyone, a super
stocking stuffer for a dancer."
Marcy Goldman, Better Baking
"...[N]early every sentence is a
deep and profound truth about Tango and real-life relationships. The concise language expresses very clearly what I always
thought but never formulated in such a lucid way. I
appreciate the insistence on the difference between energy and its expression
through behavior. A
wonderful book!!"
Peter

is an art, a physical
discipline, and a philosophy [and]
Johanna Siegmann has gone so far as to write a book and create a
system of spiritual training she calls
The
Tao of Tango."

Johanna offers a way to
understand the harmony that exists in the Tango couple and outside
it. To do so she uses a frame of reference which may or may not
coincide with that of the reader, but which [whether] seen as an
exacting description of the laws that rule the interaction of the
couple, or seen as a metaphor, [offers a] multitude of interesting
reflections and fortunate clues that help us understand not only the
specific nature of the Tango relationship, but its general
application to other areas of life...We find pieces of our own lives
in this book, seemingly caught mid-motion. It is not a still, frozen
picture, but an intense, dynamic and vital image...[T]his book has
heart.
Gabriel Espinosa, Historian Mexico City, Mexico
"The Tao of Tango The Tao of Tango" is one of the most compelling,
thought-provoking, informative and sensitive books I have ever read
... The use of the Tango as a metaphor for the "dance of life" is
beautiful and profound in its simplicity...your spirit will dance
with this one.
