Agreed, I too have admired this couple's dance for some time. I'm not enthusiastic about the "fashionable" embrace, where she hangs on his shoulder, totally off her balance. Nor am I enthusiastic about his posture which is broken at the waist, leading to over-leaning and crowding the lady. (He has never corrected this habit). Note (especially in the early part of the clip) where she is anticipating the step (presumably because it's semi-choreographed performance) leading to some off-balance maneuvers. Not exactly Osvaldo y Coca But in total, not bad, and better than a lot. :) J PS: I trust constructive appraisal of video clips is helpful. Can we see more please?
