The 'Walmartization' of Tango....
MEGA WORKSHOPS jam packed with teachers in glitzy locations around the world
are a common sight today.
How far from the bohemian atmosphere of local dancing bars these events have
become. Siting in a circle sipping mate while enjoying a friendly talk with
teachers and dancers are simply not possible in these MEGA events.
Similar consumerism driven actions have also existed among teachers. Some have
created imaginary divisive lines across styles others have claim invention of a
complete new form of true AT.
How sad all this seems to be...
"I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all
that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good
cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious."
