I don't understand why people use the term "close embrace" as an opposite of "tango nuevo" <<
I used the terms because that seem to be the language spoke here. I don't use the term "nuevo" to describe tango in real life. I don't really know why people find the need to take sides and rally under names like "Milongeuro style," "Salon Style" or "Nuevo style." I don't see that as doing anything but fracturing our rather small community. As long as a dancer follows the 4 rules I previously posted, it is all good. Let the music and the partner and the space dictate the dance. I like Homers "one tango" philosophy. >From his bio: "Homer Ladas is currently an inventive enthusiast of the "One Tango" school which attempts to study, integrate, and balance what's 'new' with what's 'traditional'.
