Dear Alex:  Yeah, here in BA, they have Practica X, Tango Extremo and I am sure others....all indicative of the nuevo style, in their events.  Seems best for an identifying "codigo", if necessary, for differentiation as it is universally recognized, as you said, since the trademarking of the X games.   Personally, though, I find all of this "talking about dance" somewhat like singing about sex.......nice but really, beside the point.  A little too much "mental masturbation", if you will, for me.  Or at best, a Zen koan.

Prefer the old chestnut........"shut up and dance", right?  A bit of an anti-intellectual position, I suppose but nonetheless, appropriate in this ongoing discussion, I feel. 

Besos y abrazos,  d. black
