“There are two secrets to being a great tango dancer. The first is having a hole in yourself that you cannot fill, and the second is the luck to fall upon tango as the thing you try to fill it with.”
Jaimes FriedgenI owe that quote above to

I like this quote too (I've published it a few weeks ago). It represents for me a deeper approach to tango. Keeping this in mind people do not hurry for steps or figures.
Let me suggest another great quote from Carlos Gavito:
The secret of tango is in this moment of improvisation that happens between step and step. It is to make the impossible thing possible: to dance silence. This is essential to learn in tangodance, the real dance, that of the silence, of following the melody.
Maybe you like it too... ;-)
