	Milonga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Milonga « Traspie » [Luis Bruni y Pascale Coquigny]
		It is a milonga where the dancer plays with the beat of the music, finding the pure essence of the milonga : the base of its rhythm is the candombé, an African rhythm from the Rio de la Plata region.
		The « traspié » is an interpretation to the milonga music which keeps in its move the poetry, the rhythm and the gracefulness of its African origin.
		These two varieties of milonga traspié are often confused for each other because they often look the same ; in reality they are different because they both use a distinctive manner to accentuate the move in agreement to the music : one down to the ground, the other up in the air.

		The milonga, which precedes the tango in history, was a solo song cultivated during the 19th Century by the gaucho (a sort of Argentine cowboy) in the vast rural area known as the Pampa.
		Trial-and-error adaptations to the new dance, bringing together the rural milonga of the gauchos, the habanera of the European immigrants, and the African-Argentine dances in the melting pot that was Buenos Aires, created a mixture called tango.
		Undoubtedly, Sebastián Piana was the pioneer of the tango milonga with his Milonga Sentimental, composed in 1931 with lyrics by Homero Manzi.

	Milonga Etiquette
		In a crowded milonga there may be concentric LODs — choose one and stay in it unless moving to/from the center to execute static patterns, i.e., don't execute static patterns in the LOD.
		At a milonga, serious dancers (leaders and followers) often won't dance with somebody they haven't seen dance, so both leaders and followers need somebody to show them off when arriving at a milonga where they are not known.
		By the way, showing off the follower is a big part of tango — keep her between you and the edge of the floor as much as possible.
