  Throughout the history of tango there have been many different dancers who have been very important, that have had an influence on changing the dance and advancing the dance. But in the 1940s and the 1950s especially there were two men who were very important, they were instrumental in advancing tango. Their names were Antonio Todaro and Raul Bravo. These teachers that were milongueros they used to practice together and they would invent many different figures and many steps that today we now take for granted. Many paradas, sandwhiches, boleos, ganchos, things that we do every day. But what we need to realize is that most of these combination of steps were invented over fifty years ago from these masters and they had a tremendous influence on the way this dance evolved. Later on in history in the 1970s, 1980s they taught some of the most important and the best tango dancers that we have travelling the world today, teaching and performing.
  They created a system that was called the Todaro-Bravo System for dancing tango.
