This video is a perfect example of why there is chaos on the dance
floor at milongas all around the world. None of what is demonstrated
is social tango dancing. Social tango dancing is not about fancy
steps; it is about connecting with your partner and the music and
respecting those around you on the dance floor with good navigation.
Why do people waste their hard earned money on this misrepresentation
of tango?
It you called it by another name (e.g., just plain "NUEVO", drop the
"TANGO") and stopped calling the gatherings where you dance this stuff
"MILONGAS", that would at least be more honest..
