That's ridiculous. You can balance your weight over the balls of your feet and 
still not look at the floor. Those movements are independent. Looking at the 
floor comes from bending you head to look down at the floor. People dancing 
tango milonguero have their balance forward and most do not look at the floor. 
It is the tango nuevo dancers with upright posture who are more likely to look 
at the floor, perhaps because their feet are more active doing various kinds of 
movements.
