Subject: [Tango-L] obsession with Nuevo

Totally agree. I see a difference between, cities where a tight, close frame
is required and a respect for others is shown to places where it seems the
definition of a good dance is how many ganchos and volcadas can be thrown in
a song no matter who is around.

Lately I have been concentrating on trying to smoothly turn my partner
keeping the axis, do mirror giros and project through in my basic walks. A
large minority to tango seem in the main want to do fantasia so how do I
satisfy their needs while getting enough dances of my own?
