Unless you also tell them that that step can also be danced "back" roughly 1nm (that's a millionth of a millimetre) - and should be, actually, unless you know you aren't against the line of dance. But of course, that can't be right, because it then no longer has a *dreaded* back step, so it's no longer the "mandatory" 8CBwDBS? _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
