David:
I can't give any positive reason but an explanation. This is prevalent when the 
man is much taller than the woman and he compensates for the height difference, 
trying for cheek-to-cheek. Some men bend their knees more than usual and dance 
like Quasimodo. (I hope the spelling is correct.)

  Subject: [Tango-L] Heads up


  I think most would agree that tango is about  balance, axis, posture and 
walking in a natural manner.
  So here is my  question, how can you dance with balance, on axis and with 
good posture if your  head is looking down at the floor? The head is very heavy 
about 10 - 12 pounds  and I see many dancers even those claiming to be teachers 
dancing looking down  at the floor? And what in  the world are you looking for? 
Is this why you are always bumping into others?  Are you such a bad leader you 
need to look down to see where the follower’s feet  are?  Help me out here if 
you dance this way give me one positive reason why.
  Thanks
  David
