[Tango-L] "Stay away from self appointed tango teachers." Re: Public Service Announcement (2nd Law)

[Yale Tango Club]

I am a self-appointed teacher. Please stay away from me! Thank you very much. 
  If you disregard this warning, you might learn something. Maybe even some milonguero tango, oh, NO!

  PS: In my community, when there was no teacher, I appointed myself teacher, and went on to appoint 10 more just like me. We teach classes for free. If we didn't do it, every week or whenever there's beginners needing classes, who would?

My view on learning tango:

"Stay away from self appointed tango teachers."

You are the customer. Why not just watch someone
dance at a milonga. If you want to dance like them,
"you ask them" to teach you what they know. Do not
let people "tell you" that they are teachers. You
make that decision yourself.
