A really nice compliment

Last night at the milonga in Via della Viola here in Perugia, I was chatting away with Lucia, an adorable woman with a beautiful dance style who has gone to Buenos Aires a couple of times with her boyfriend (also a good dancer) by now.  We were chatting about different styles of tango and what we prefered, when she stopped, looked at me, and said,

“But Tina, I think you have a style that is very personal, all your own.  When the man holds you tight, you dance in his arms, tightly connected - but when he gives you space, you take it and use it.  I’ve never seen a woman here dance with such… equilibrium.” (Sorry guys, I’m trying to translate from Italian and it’s not coming across right.)

So, here’s to personal style!
