Is your tango crowd a genuine support system—or a “summer-camp friendship” that fades outside the milonga?
We test the word community, share how marriage, babies, and break-ups rewired our own tango ties, and ask if giving more than you get is the only way to make the dance family stick.

Episode highlights

• Community defined: geographic, interest-based, and true support circles

• Why tango cohorts vanish—and how to stay when your friends move on

• Vulnerability & reciprocity: the chemistry behind friendships that last

• Parents, newcomers, retirees: can one scene meet every life phase?

• Your turn: is what happens on the floor real connection…or context?
