It looks like 'milonga loca' to me. They're killing the dance. Dance
like that in a milonga in Buenos Aires and you will be barred from
that place for life.

That's all we need is for more people to use this a role model for
their own dancing. As if navigation at milongas in the US isn't
chaotic enough.

For an excellent display of dancing milonga see the following. (Mario,
I'm sure you've seen this.) The connection and musicality are
impeccable.

Whoever doesn't see the beauty of their dance, give up tango tomorrow.
You're wasting your time and money with the teachers you have been
studying with.
