Gordian knot of Cadena
In translation, Cadena means a chain. And just like rings in a chain loop into each other, the name Cadena is assigned to any step that can be repeated by looping and not by finite beginnings and ends as the regular sequence does.
Sometimes Cadenas are confused with alteration and sometimes with a change of fronts. We will explain why.
Spatial awerness
Cadenas will let you fly around the floor, get you out of the tight situation in the crowded Milonga or present yourself on the not-so-crowded dance floor when there are not that many couples, and there is space to shine.
Cadenas are relatively tricky to understand, but once you understand the concept and master the technique, they are really handy to use.
