A Quote from Debbie Novitz from her blog.

In his interview in the magazine La Milonga Claudio Segovia the man who made Tango Argentino reality says "Tango can be done with a 1000 figures, but the pure beauty, is tango danced smoothly without any figures.  It cannot be compared to anything."  This is the thing that most foreigners and many new dancers do not understand.  They think that show tango is tango.

I am packing this away in my thoughts while we are packing our bags for a little "not-show-tango" in BsAS next week. Again we said," Only Carry-on bags this time"  Again we have a mound as big as Moby Dick- a bean pot, 8 jars of peanut butter, silk plants, etc. etc., to haul 5000 miles and put in a space the size of a dolphin.
