[Tango-L] Qualifying Tango Instructors.

Such a system is already in place. One has to pass the examination of a 
few dozen people who know little or nothing about tango or the dance, then 
instruct them for a few weeks.

Voila. You are now - by definition - a tango instructor. ;)

One UK tango website provides service wherein a student can email-in the 
name of a prospective teacher to get an answer saying whether that teacher 
"really is well respected in Buenos Aires".
