What is “axis” in tango? Think of it as an invisible line running through your body → from the top of your head down to the space between your feet. Your axis is what keeps you balanced, centred, and connected. It’s also one of the main ways we communicate with our partner. Depending on where your weight is in relation to your axis, you either lead or follow a movement.
