[Tango-L] To get stuck is not a pose

[burak ozkosem]

Milongas are social venues not private clubs that memberships required,
btw we have it here in chicago member only milonga, there is one in
Madison,Wi banning dancers from attending the milonga.

Irregular "ronda" formation is always a dilemma in tango pedagogy,some
teachers who don't dance socially or  focusing on steps,technique only
does not help dancers on the social setting at all.
