I enjoyed my vacation in BA even though some tried to tell me what to do. I observed that the Argentines use the following figures:
Back ocho Low Boleo Walking Ocho Cortado Giros (called molinetes north of the equator) I've read messages on Tango A about workshops and festivals for colgaldas, valcadas, sacadas and other figures ending in "adas." It made me wonder how many figures do I need for a good dance. What figures are missing from the above list you feel are necessary? How frequently are you able to incorporate what you learned from festivals and workshops into your dance? It's a slow Saturday night and I'm writing as I listen to Garrison Keillor's monologue. Unfortunately, there's no AT in Lake Wobegone, MN,.
