tango requirements are much more demanding than salsa; the learnig curve is much steeper; most guys abandon tango fairily quckly and fallback on salsa
SEEEEEXXXXX! is just to peng man (:
I've tried both.
1. the photos in the article are grossly misleading
to be honest, you should replace the "tango" photo with an image of a typical overcrowded tango milonga
2. the tango is not limited to the "tragic, slow" traditional songs; in the milongas about 30% of the songs are either fast milongas either valses (waltz rhytm)
anyway, a tango dancer will learn very fast to dance salsa, whether a salsero will have a hard time (no wonder salsa is more popular, as it is WAY more easy to learn)
because you can do it alone and make up your own dance steps.
The salsa, in my opinion, is easier to learn because as long as you have a basis of the "legal" moves you can put your own spin on them and make it your own. The tango, on the other hand, has to be learned perfectly in order to know how to dance it correctly, The salsa is more social, upbeat and fast.
Tango is not a very popular dance such as salsa. Tango is much more intimate and the steps are more intense and flow according to the emotions of the dancers. You must know the origins and culture surrounding the tango in order to demonstrate mastery of the dance.

Not as awkward.
Salsa is easier to learn because it isn't so complex and fluid, but tango seems like a more passionate dance form that allows for more creative expression and intimacy.
salsa sounds good!
wob wob wob , j'niea told me to . so it's all her fault. yep , mhm' . alrighty
Because I know how to dance salsa,hello! I'm from P.R.
It seems like it's lots of fun. I'm not looking for something giving me more stress!!
Many clubs offer complimentary lessons and seem to be more that teach it often, so it is more accessible in general to learn basics.
It can be free style and does not have as much technique and posture as tango.
xzzXZ
u can learn the basic steps by follwing the rithm of the music.
Salsa seems more loose and open' than tango which is more fierce and straight forward.
learned both; salsa is way easier to learn than tango
because it is more fun and you can learn more when you are having fun i didnt chiise tango becauseits more of a serious uptight dance and i am the type of person who loves to just let loose and have fun and laugh a little. LOL live out loud! :-)
been there, done that
ITS faster and more upbeat, so you can just go along with the crowd.
Love the rhythm of bongo beat. A great way to meet new people, feel smart, elegant, ****, lift self-esteem and self-security and most of all, improves your body posture, toning the arms, waist, buttocks, and legs. Love it!
less sensual
coz in salsa we turn into one soul with our partner , feel every single breath of our partner , dance in very high pitched with him and feel that their is no one except us in the ballroom
because it is a happy and rocking music and it can be learn easily whereas tango is a very depressing and sad music which will be difficult to learn
I done it in dance club and its pretty fun.

Because salsa is very energetic and my batteries are never down so I prefer salsa. We can dance on our own without a partner and we do not need to learn steps. The music is very high and fast. We just need to clap hands,move around while twirling and just keep smiling. It's lot of fun and that helps me from stressing about what if I miss one or two steps instead of tango. But I don't mean that tango is not good. It's very emotional when u dance in it and it's really beautiful to see two couple in love dancing together;)So now it's your choice to see if u prefer tango or salsa.
I am taking classes in both and in my view, Salsa is much easier to learn than tango (Argentine variety).many reasons for this :
1. Salsa is more structured than tango. Tango is improvised. There are no basic steps really..this means tango really exercises your creativity, spontaneous ability to think on your feet, adaptability etc..more so than salsa
2. Salsa is at a distance between partners. So if you make a mistake, who cares and it's easier to hide mistakes and recover from them. In tango, because you both are close physically..this is tougher. Really takes a lot more synchronised between partners in tango. Not easy to get to this state.
3. Most important reason why tango is harder: the connection, intensity etc between the partners is very difficult to get but necessary for a mind blowing dance. This connection is not nearly as intense nor really necessary in salsa to make it look good. Tango is about feelings not how it looks.
In saying all that, if you can get tango right ( don't have to be an expert), the connection, sensuality, intimacy are all second to none. This is why you dance tango.if you want to show off to the crowd and look good with flashy moves, pick salsa
It's not as difficult because you aren't required to have a partner. Therefore, you can focus only on yourself as opposed to "feeling" your partner while dancing the tango.
It's easy for me because it's like "step back and front now switch" and Tango is like " T A N G O(back,back,back,side step)
