Too often, when tango gets difficult, we start to replace it with "flash". Yes - learning a pattern can be so much easier. The leader learns it, the follower learns it, we do it - tango happens! But that's a shallow - really shallow - replacement for the beauty that is tango. (I call it paint by numbers tango-ick). It is not enough. Not nearly enough. It is so easy to fall into that trap, and I think so many here in Minnesota have. I promise, as I do every year, to have a renewed commitment to instilling in every tango dancer here, the true, deep beauty of authentic Argentine tango.Every one. I can't wait!!!
