Last night we went to a dinner where there was a show. It was mostly dedicated toTango dancing and although long, they were incredibly skilled and needed to have exception timing for fear of being kicked in the neither regions!
They also had this guy who used those round balls they use to trip animals when hunting and he was amazing, kind of like poi but wooden and used for a practical application.
They have made a big deal of tango as there is disagreement whether it started here or in Bolivia. Apparently it started around 1870s as (get this?.) a dance men did to simulate fight moves,THEN the prostitutes got involved and it became more sexy (sound like a Tui ad to me) The big Catholic population shunned it until it caught on in France, then it was all go here. It is pretty 'close' dancing, for want of a better term!
