The Goths were a tribe of people that existed in Roman times and were looked on as Barbarians due to their fierce nature. Over time, as with most things, ideas of the Goths were romanticised and led to a fashion trend, albeit accidentally. This changed them from something that was originally seen as nasty and ugly to a thing of beauty, where followers try to see the beauty in the darker side of life.
The tango is a hot, sultry dance full of strutting proud men and softly flowing women. While it retains many elements of the other dances, it has its own movements which set it apart from the other dances. These are quick turns and jerky arms and leg movements most people are familiar with. When dancing tango dance steps, it should be noted that a proud, strong and quietly dignified expression and bearing is a hallmark of the accomplished tango dancer.
