Trini: This reminds me of what Daniel Trenner said at Tango Locura in Montreal where we met in 1999. (I hope I get it right.) "People want to dance tango. But before you learn to dance tango, you first have to learn how to dance. But some people try to dance tango without going through dance."

It was an advanced workshop on ganchos and the followers all had the same problem of freezing as if they were deer in the headlights. Every single one of them! Dance. It's movement. Keeping the beat would be nice, too. But moving is critical. If you were to have asked me Saturday, I probably would have given more high-falutin' answers.
