Think about a handful of world class Tango dancers, Pablo Veron, Miguel Angel Zotto, Osvaldo Zotto, Pablo Pugliese, Eduardo Arquimbau, Carlos Copello , you name them. They all are superb dancers, they all can teach and they all dance completely different from each other. Spectacular dancers, yet, each one dances with a unique personality and style.
