Abstract

The tango brings out the true essence of the individuals, it removes every mask and stops the lies you tells yourself, forcingthe
contact with yourself even before with the others. This is the essence on which we relied to propose a course of psychotherapy with
basic elements of tango, as a peculiar mode of experiencing oneself. In this paper we analyze how Tango could become an
interesting instrument for the cure and the prevention of psychological and physical problems.

Keywords
