I certainly agree with Melina on this one. "I've danced with a lot of good dancers, who have a quite limited repertoire and with even more bad dancers with a huge repertoire! Some may find that boring, but I'm searching for the quality within a single movement."
It seems that the discussion about the number of figures (however small that number may be) can have an unintended consequence. It may distract some readers from what is the essence of the dance. As a woman in tango, the feeling of being transported in the dance is absolutely the result of quality of movement, and my partner's connection with me & the music, certainly not the number of "figures" he may be leading. Thanks for the thought-provoking topics!
