[Tango-L] Cheryl Burke Forever Tango interviews

[Gordon Erlebacher]

What exactly is meant by

"she really knew nothing about the dance"

Does that mean that prior to training she never danced argentine tango? 
I know people who have danced for 5-10 years who state that they know 
hardly anything about the dance.
