[Tango-L] Criteria for choosing teachers

[Lois Donnay]

What do you think should be the criteria of the local tango club for the
instructors that it chooses for their Argentine Tango instructor list?  The
club wants to be fair, but is also aware that everyone who teaches
Argentine Tango is not necessarily qualified to do so (If you ask any
Arthur Murray franchise if they teach A. Tango, they will say yes despite
having no knowledge of it.)

So what should be the criteria? Lessons for # years? Ongoing public group
classes in Argentine Tango?  Visited Buenos Aires? Danced in Buenos Aires?
Taught in Buenos Aires?  Invited to teach A. Tango in out of state
workshops?
