No, I'm not a professional, so of course I can't dance anywhere near their
standard and I'm guessing that's true of most of the people on this list.
But when they start to dance figures that are very similar to what I've seen
in latin dancing, especially Rumba [for shows, not competition], then they
should expect to be compared with the best latin dancers and not just tango
dancers. And, on that basis, IMHO, when attempting those figures, they're
not smooth, graceful or very skilful.
To even things up, when I see world class ballroom tango dancers try to use
elements from Argentine Tango, they also look very silly.
