Here's Gustavo & Giselle dancing their majestic version of "Don Juan" -
combining tight corridas, intimate embraces, and Gustavo's high-quality
salon footwork during Giselle's giro (impeccably executed common
"traditional" elements) with multiple fourth-sacadas, supersweet colgadas,
beautifully timed piernazos, no-embrace back sacadas, "colgada boleos" and
superslow linear boleos (virtuoso "nuevo" elements) all done with beautiful
connection and near-flawless musicality...

... and many of us have seen them bring this mastery to the social floor of
the milonga with consummate taste, complete awareness of the ronda, and
inspiring improvisational skill.

Enjoy!
