MY FIRST BOOK
TANGO, LOVES AND OTHER HERBS
Chronicles of a ballerina in the Old World
In 1997, for the first time, having tango in her body and soul, Patricia Segovia undertook an unimaginable journey to the Old World to make her dancer dreams come true. But as often happens, her plans went to hell (or paradise?) and her trip turned into an extraordinary adventure.
Patricia opens her heart to us and undresses to relate her chronicles as a lonely traveler, with the sensitivity of an artist woman and her free and passionate spirit.

Tango is not only that wonderful music created on the banks of the Rio de la Plata in the late nineteenth century between immigrants, natives and slaves. It is also more than a couple of dance, more than an embrace... It was born between brothels and dwelling of the suburbs, sensual and mysterious, surprisingly inexplicable and so well recognized all over the world.

Tango is another thing ... It's a search, a meeting, a pair of wings.

It is the magic created by its protagonists, the dancers, who surrender, with their bodies linked, to the tango and begin to translate the music into movements that wrap their bodies in a constant flow of energy, until it finishes in their feet, renewing itself to every step.

The body is the beginning of everything, it is the external, the visible, the tangible, until reaching the most intimate, the inner feeling itself, which can not be seen or touched, to the place where the mind is lost and completely melted. In that feeling, in that being and not being ... This is where the essence of tango lives.
