Do followers who buy into this stereotypical concept not recognize it as an
artificial performance standard based on (most of the time, their own)
sub-standard expectation? Just as importantly, do instructors who buy into
and
teach it not recognize this

I begin by stating that I am new to Argentine Tango(3+ yrs).
The humility is refreshing (I say this with no sarcasm intended at all),
considering the increasing number of teachers who have been dancing
for considerably less than that time.
My first instructor
I am a dancer and a musician.
After reading the comments on this site the past months, I am inspired to
speak my thoughts on the perfect lead.
Touched By Tango
Move me to the music. Let your heart pulse through mine with the beat of
our life's thread. Every phrase tells a story, it asks a
Shahrukh,
(notwithstanding the claim that tango is nothing more than walking --
that's only true once you're super-advanced)
As one follower friend of mine said, it's walking while hugging - a

Dear listmembers, especially those versed in ballroom and other dances,
Does the cruzada position with the left foot crossed in front of the
right one exist in other dances?
Or is it unique to AT?
Thank you,

Yes. The cruzada is used in Cha cha and also in Viennese Waltz and is usually
called a lock step. It may be used in others, but it has been a while since my
conversion by immersion to Argentine Tango.

Ballroom
I think probably all Ballroom dances use the 'cross' or Lock-Step. In addition
to those already mentioned, also in Slow Waltz, Ballroom Tango, Paso Doble,
Rumba. And, yes, they can be held or delayed. Perhaps not in the 'standard
figures', but certainly in variations.
