[Tango-L] Nuevo Milonguero

[Sorin Varzaru]

Huh, I must've been to another BsAs in June and July. And maybe you
should tell Tete that the way he dances is all wrong. I've seen him
leading off axis moves, and reverse roles with a number of women. I
actually have a picture of that. Good dancers use whatever they can to
make the dance fun. The difference between them and the bad dancers is
they will only lead the moves that can be done in the available space
and both themselves an their partners can actually execute it.

Maybe some people on tango-l could try spending less time arguing
about tango and more time actually dancing. Just a thought.

As for 'linear', 'circular' and whatever direction boleos and ganchos and the wrapping of legs around body parts that are best left unwrapped, they just don't occur in Bs As milongas.
