If you are planning …
If you are planning to study one or both of these dances, I would suggest Salsa On2 or Argentine tango. On2 for obvious reasons:) (feel free to check my class schedule if you are in the New York area or you can look into my video instruction online if you are out of NYC)and Argentine tango because the other styles of tango lack the passion of the authentic form (my personal opinions of course:)

What’s the …
What’s the difference between tango and salsa? I assume that they’re both latin american in origin, and i know the tango comes from argentina (?). So what’s the difference? (just a niggling curiousity i have).

The Tango in …
The Tango in Argentina, the most distinct difference would be the contra body/cuban motion of Salsa which rides up the body starting with the ball heel action of the feet which creates this motion, as opposed to the tango where the torso is still and most of the action is in the intertwining of the feet (moves of the legs hooking called ganchos (or hooks)).

Also the tango was …
Also the tango was considered very riske when it first came about. It was done in brothels or otherwise men would dance with one another because it wasn’t appropriate for the respectable woman to perform this dance.

Both dances are …
Both dances are very passionate in nature, however, I would have to say that tango has more of an undercurrent building where as salsa is more flamboyant in it’s expression of passion and heat. Tango has more of a feeling of passion, sorrow and longing also at the time reflecting immigrants to Argentina and their longing for home or fighting in nature.

Well aside from origin of the dances, Salsa’s origin being Caribbean (Cuba/Puerto Rico), (there’s actually a controversy as to whether salsa originated in PR or Cuba).
