[Tango-L] "Stay away from self appointed tango teachers."

[Trini y Sean (PATangoS)]

Hi Derik,

Trini, here.  As someone who dances close-embrace most
of the time, I can tell you that it is quite possible
to do a front ocho in close-embrace.  Your posts
indicate that your relative inexperience lets you
believe that such is not possible.  I suggest that if
you worked more on the close-embrace you will discover
a lot more options that you are missing out on.  And
you might understand better why so many people, not
just Americans, enjoy dancing close-embrace
"all-the-time".  

Personally, dancing close allows me to better
communicate with my partner.  This is the spice that
adds a lot of variety to the dance...to those men who
can listen.

Happy tangos, whatever your style.
Trini de Pittsburgh
