And yet people do aerials socially. As a worst case
example: on my first tango trip to BsAs, in 1996,
there was a couple from the western US who, during a
swing tanda at a milonga, did several aerials in the
middle of the floor. Did they get away with it? Oh
yes, because the Argentines were too polite to
embarrass them, but I was embarrassed that these two
ballroom trained folks were so inconsiderate and so
egotistical. They did it several times at various
milongas. NOT what I had come to Argentina to see!
At least swing is a 'slot dance' and thus it did not
interrupt the ronda too much.
