Online Followers Tango Technique Workshop — Gisela Natoli
Hello everyone. I want to share something that is happening to me, to see if it happens to anyone else.
Hello...
I would like to share something and would love to hear your opinions.
Two years ago I changed my footwear and I now only wear barefoot / foot-friendly shoes. I was away from tango and this week I wanted to try on my old tango heels and it was impossible to wear them. My feet were completely miserable.
It made me think a lot. I want to believe that we don't have to enslave ourselves to high heels. I want to believe that respectful, delicate and beautiful shoes for dancing tango can exist.
I have seen practice sneakers and besides finding them ugly (sorry) , they are narrow.
What I am looking for is a shoe that is wide, that respects the normal size of a foot, that doesn't squeeze, but that can be used to dance tango.
Does this exist? Do you know someone who could make them?
Are there more women who feel the same way, who feel we shouldn't have to sacrifice our health to keep dancing tango with the high-heel rule?
I will read you, thank you in advance.
