[Tango-L] Smooth Tango - feeling - style

[Sergio Vandekier]

Damian,
 
             Tank you very much for your gracious note.
 
My intention was not to criticize your dancing at all. I thought that the use of those videos, already presented and discussed by other members of the list, was a good oportunity to show what '"feeling" in Argentine Tango is.
 
You are entitled (as you explain) to your own style.
 
The only purpose of comparing those two videos was to discuss "feeling" and connection.
 
It certainly would be very unfair otherwise, to compare somebody in an exhibition situation with somebody in a teaching situation.
Also it is obvious that you and Osvaldo dance different tango styles : zotto dances "Traditional Tango" and you have a lot of influence from "Nuevo tango".
 
IMO you already dance better than most people I know, please continue the good work.
 
Going back to you style, out of all the instructors you mentioned, perhaps Chicho had the most influence.
 
As to feeling, you frequently do show a special feeling and connection at your exhibitions.
 
Good luck, I hope to meet you sometime,
 
Sergio
