according to his own statement on todotango:
"His feet, like wings, remind us of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, two
kings of musical comedies. For Juan Carlos Copes, they were his
paradigm, his masters, his models."
Well, I never liked his style, now I know why, he learned Tango from
Gene Kelly ;-)
Unfortunately, half of the steps we dance today were invented by him....
