LFRF Episode

In this episode, we dive deep into the silent language of tango: the cabeceo and mirada. While much of the focus is on the man's role in initiating the dance, we explore a rarely discussed question — why do so many women avoid or forget to actively use the mirada?

We break down how this mutual exchange works, why it’s more than just “waiting to be asked,” and what it says about agency, tradition, and social dynamics in tango culture today. Whether you're new to tango or a seasoned dancer, this conversation will challenge how you think about dance invitations — and who's really doing the inviting.

Is the mirada a lost art?
