Tangolates, also known in Buenos Aires as Tango-Pilates and Pilates-Tango, is a method of conscious, mind-body exercises designed in Buenos Aires by Tamara Di Tella.

It is based on certain characteristics of both Tango dancing and Pilates, yet it is different from both. It combines the core stability of Pilates with the concentration, coordination and fluid movement of Tango. It is unique in that it utilizes a partner method rather than individual exercises and that it incorporates the aerobic or cardio element of music.

Tangolates is usually performed on a specially designed apparatus, on a mat, or on the Pilates apparatus.

Originally a rehabilitation technique conceived for patients with severe dysfunctions of the nervous system, Tangolates has transcended the hospital environment to become a fashionable workout for healthy people.
