[Tango-L] Aerials in social dancing

[Jack Dylan]

And yet .... in just about every other country that this 
couple visits, their skills are probably appreciated and 
applauded.

I mean - it was a Swing tanda with, presumably, a lot 
of space available. So, why not? I don't see a problem.

Swing is not Tango. Different rules, different culture.
