It is very effective and choreographed very tightly. Their demeanor is serious, concentrated, and occasional eye to eye contact. Remember, it takes two to tango. Now picture a solo dancer, standing very proud, hands on hips, eyes toward the ceiling, castanets tapping out a fast rhythm, and guitars are playing a rapid beat.

Tango and Flamenco are entirely different dance styles, but the main difference is that partners do not touch each other in Flamenco dance. On the other hand, Tango dance is a very close dance where dancers can dance in an open or closed position
