This movement, sometimes called 'el puente' (bridge) can be seen now
and then in Buenos Aires milongas, but one may have to wait an hour or

position. It is

wear designer sneakers with suede glued to the bottoms of them.
What do cargo pants have to do with dancing? I mean fashions changed
quite a bit during the last 100+ years of tango and I would say that if

divide. How can this be?
Well, fortunately, we all have our own relationships and/or opinions.
So we can see that there is no problem - other than semantics or
individual terms of reference,

BsAs, dressing in elegant sport (no jeans, shorts, cargo pants, or
athletic shoes), is in respect to the tango. Normally gentlemen wear
nice slacks with a button shirt. Jackets or tuxedos are not necessary.

When I was learning tango in the mid-1990s, nuevo clearly referred to
the work of Gustavo, Fabian and Chicho. Nuevo meant analysis and
exploration. I know that these days some people use nuevo to mean a

We all know the answer to this! If you go back to the developmental
stages of Tango, you see men dancing with other men. After a decade or
