Michael:
This sounds like a leader dancing tango as if it was a
ballroom dance. In ballroom, the right hand is used for
leading because most of the dances are in an open frame
where there isn't any upper body contact.

I dance ballroom but use my palm instead of my fingers. I've
seen ballroom teachers teach Argentine tango as if it was a
ballroom dance. This could be the source.

In ballroom, the man's right hand is under the woman's left
shoulder blade. In tango, I wrap my right arm around the
small of her back to ensure good contact as buckling a seat
belt.
