[Tango-L] How many figures do you need?

[Michael]

Mario:
Congratulations. You got it. Look at the faces of the dancers. Who thinks 
too much and who feels the dance? Which leaders shove women through figures 
and who lets them move on their own? Which followers use their right arm to 
pull and push themselves through ochos?

I danced Argentine Tango - - with the Argentines

It seems like the alternative to lots of variety in steps is to either do 
few steps better and/or do the walk with more variety. For the close embrace 
enthusiast who doesn't want to break the embrace in order to do a figure, 
there is the search for a more profound connection throughout the figures 
the pauses and then there is the walk. The walk is THE place where variety 
can lead to more mutual enjoyment in the dance.
