Jack On day 20 this girl was dancing a very proper salon tango not show tango and she was doing it very well. It makes me think that you may not know the difference between close embrace and salon tango and the fact that both styles are appropriate in BsAs depending on which milonga you choose to dance at.

If she travelled all the way to BsAs to learn this kind of show-tango, she probably wasted her time. She could get the same thing from any travelling performer/teacher or tango festival closer to home. Is this how she expects to dance in a milonga? Or maybe she'll go home and become yet another tango teacher with 'Learned Tango in BsAs' on her resume and then teach a tango that no one in BsAs actually dances - at least, in the milongas.
