A language
Thursday, October 30th, 2008More than anything Tango is a language. It is not, like other dances, the repitition of certain steps to a certain rhythm. It is not something you do it is something that you say. And so when you start learning it you should place upon yourself the same expectations you would when learning French, for example. After your first hour of French lessons you don’t expect to be able to say much more than “My name is”, “I am so old” and “I live here” in a poor accent.
We are always told to walk before we try to run, well we spent plenty of time tottering before we could even stand.
Edit:
This language thing is catching.
