Went to my first milonga last night. It's quite weird this whole underground tango culture in seedy community halls. But really good to watch all these people who look like they would step on your toes and bump into you at a moment's notice, all gliding around the floor doing fancy footwork and completely unchoreographed and hardly any collisions at all.
We were just happy we made it round the dance floor once without bumping into too many people, all in time to the music. Hurrah! Twas pretty daunting as everybody seemed to be way more experienced than us, but fun, once we got going. Our tango instructor was very proud of us. It's all pretty much still a mystery to me though.
Nevertheless, I really enjoyed it. I might even go again.
