Here is a a wonderfully sweet youtube video of Osvaldo & Coca dancing
at El Beso. Maybe you've already seen it.
I notice that Osvaldo dances flat footed 95% of the time. He also
uses softened if not bent knees most of the time.
There is a point in the second dance where he goes up on his toes and
evokes a funky or street feeling with some little teasing steps, but
that is for special effect, and draws a cheer from the crowd.
(Although Susana Miller owns the club, she didn't teach Osvaldo).
