Instead of adding any tag which is never a good solution. You can always use margin property with the required element.
You can add the margin on row class itself. So it will affect globally.
.row{
margin-top: 30px;
margin-bottom: 30px
}
Update: Better solution in all cases would be to introduce a new class and then use it along with .row class.
.row-m-t{
margin-top : 20px
}
Then use it wherever you want
<div class="row row-m-t"></div>
