We were delighted to welcome Marcelo, a talented tango teacher who travelled all the way from Argentina to deliver two wonderful BioTango sessions at our dementia cafés.
BioTango combines the beauty of traditional Argentine tango with gentle movement, music and social interaction, making it a fantastic activity for people living with dementia and their carers.
The sessions offered a lovely opportunity for everyone to enjoy the rhythm of tango, try something new and connect with others through music and movement. Beyond the enjoyment, BioTango can help support coordination, balance, confidence and emotional wellbeing, while encouraging social connections.
A huge thank you to Marcelo for bringing a little taste of Argentina to our dementia café network and sharing his passion for tango with our community. It was a wonderful reminder that music and dance can bring people together, regardless of age or ability!
