Sorry Keith I don't agree with not being able to do tango moves to milonga
rhythm. The secret or simply the technique of dancing to Milonga rhythm is
to step on each beat or the accented beat as some would prefer and or
double time or traspie. Doing the basic steps 1-5 followed with a molinete
looks good and is a nice variation to milonga steps/moves; and certainly fits
the rhythm. It was good enough for Pablo Pugliese when he taught it in a
work shop years ago and it works for me as well without pushing! Give it a
try and maybe you'll be less annoyed at milongas when you see other dancers
incorporating basic tango steps; unless of course they are just
inexperienced and/or bad dancers. Try it you may like it.
