Thank you Christian for the interesting video.

Although it seems obvious that tango dancing could help patients with
cardiovascular conditions, let's keep in mind that this project has
started recently, and no research data has been published yet.

The physicians who pioneered the project are hoping that patients
recovering from heart surgery or coronary problems will be more
motivated to follow through with "tango rehabilitation" (since only 15
% of patients follow through with with traditional rehabilitation).

Let's keep in mind that the statement that "Argentine Tango Treatment
Helps Rehabilitate Heart Patients" has yet to be proven by research
data. Although romantic, "Tango heals broken hearts" may be
a premature statement.
