What it is

The game is a structured system that enables you to hack the operating system of tango, facilitated by a physical card deck of 24 playing cards, each embedded with one aspect of the deep structure of tango.

People playing the Tango Fairytale Game have found that its strange rigor turns your tango practice into a lucid dreamlike experience, yielding a maximum euphoria among serious practitioners.

How it works

How it works: once you familiarize yourself with the code, you use the cards to generate novel tango sequences using chance-based methods.

A 5-step sequence can reliably provides enough material to investigate for an hour+ of deep practice.

This system has the capacity to generate the following:

• For a three-step sequence: 1008 possibilities (504 per system)
• For a five-step sequence: 19,400 possibilities

Important: Prerequisite

To play the Tango Fairytale Game, you need to understand one basic principle of nuevo analysis: the difference between an open step and a crossed step. Without this you’ll be pretty lost. Also, to play it well, you’ll need to be able to do at least 180 degree pivots nicely.

Play with a partner

The simplest way to start:

1. Start by removing all the cards except the five yellow cards with orange boxes.
2. Choose two at random, and decipher them, and then dance them.
3. Repeat this until you’ve tried out a several different two-card combinations.
4. Now choose three cards at random. Learn this as a sequence.
5. Do your three-card sequence twice in a row (which means you do it on both sides.)
