Welcome

Welcome to TangoMujer.Org. TangoMujer was the first all-woman dance company in the world, and performed internationally for ten years, from 1996-2006. Its members inspired a generation of young tangueras to explore both following and leading roles, and to create artistic work that pushed the boundaries of the art form. In 2011 TangoMujer.Org became a resource for women tango dancers pursuing a similar path, maintained by the nonprofit organization Tango Mercurio based in Washington, DC. On this site, you’ll find a history of TangoMujer the dance company, profiles of the original members, and blog entries and interviews with contemporary female tango artists engaged in unique creative projects of their own. If you know of an artist, group, or resource that you’d like to see on this site, please comment below.
