If you do a clapping exercise in a group, it doesn't mean that these men can hear the rhythm in the music. It only means that they can see and hear their fellow students clap. A true test would be to have the students clap individually. >A good exercise is a slow milonga.

I don't know if the step you're describing has a name. You would use this step in milonga traspie. _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
