Giro-ing towards the partners 'center'.

"Of course we can go in the middle, here, here, close to one foot close to another, anything is possible, in that, tango today" more or less a quote

What come to mind here, as an illustration of how "geometry" can affect your dance, is that it's much easier to lead an "overturned ocho" if your center is "to the right of" your parnter's if you want to lead an ocho to your left. Etc.

It seems that she is mostly remembering how "natural" and "comfortable" it feels, though, to NOT be "off center" with your partner.

So, I agreee with btm's interpretation.

Yes, she is talking about where the guy steps, IMO. It does give me something else to think about and experiment with, (like I needed one more thing to work on).

I prefer pivots from slow waltz or fleckerl from viennese waltz. Those suit best to the music. Argentine giros should be used with sacadas.

Reminds me of playing Monopoly under the influence. After several minutes of haggling we finally came to an agreement, but we weren't able to restate what the agreement was.

that, I beleive, is the art of the mediater; to convince each party that what they are agreeing on gives them the upper hand, whereas in fact they have agreed to something else entirely..

And please allow a counter question: seems that you´ve changed your style. What was the reason?

Style of dancing or style of discussion in the forum?

 

[opendoor]

I mean the opener´s dancing style.

No I never had any style.

Oh, so your question is to Mario.

If you mean me... no, I am still focused on the social dance of the older milongueros in BsAs.... that is the Traditional style. The giros of Nestor Ray in this Vals, really get me...:!::applause:
