Mario, I have no idea where you get that idea from this video.  If anything, 
the video shows a method of creating more awareness of one's self.  A lot of 
people think that they are standing up straight when they are actually bent 
forward or bent backward.  In other words, what someone might think of as an 
assimulated part of him/herself, could actually be bad for tango.

Basically, what is happening is that some people are filming the dancers, who 
can watch the results of the filming in real time through the goggles that they 
are wearing.  They get instant feedback.   I think it's a pretty good use of 
technology.
