Thanks for the videos. We can learn a lot, not just how fast the LOD moves.

Notice that everybody (unless I missed a couple) is in close embrace. The 
same figures I described in an earlier post are repeated. You don't see 
Volcadas, Colgadas, Linear Boleos nor other space consuming figures. The 
emphasis is on movement and connection. You don't see couples staying in 
place for paradas and other figures that can cause a traffic jam.

This is a good illustration of the expression "You just don't dance with 
your partner; but everybody else on the floor."
