00:55 Ramzi forgets he's dancing tango and throws in some flamenco zapateado

Joking joking. Very nice! Olé!

Bravo, Ramzi. A nice beginning, but far too sanitized. Learn to get down and dirty, as if you were in a bordello in 1920s Buenos Aires, with Carlos Gardel singing and a motley crew of toughs and whores drinking at nearby tables. Your partner lifts a cocked leg and wraps it around your waist. You are wearing a pair of bombashas (the pants that balloon out at the thighs), and a knife is at your back, held in place by the waistband of your bombashas, ready for you to pull it out and slip it between the ribs of the drunken hombre at the table to your left whose gaze has lingered a little too long on your woman.

Nice! Great walk, elegance and precision in the movement; firm left hand carry with a nice stylistic shape of the grip. The dancing seems a bit too restrained for now as if you are holding back a bit.. with this tango and interpretation more embellishments and double-tempo steps fit well.

You have the right pants too - wide-legged so they make nice lines even when the legs bend. But you have to try adding cuffs - they would pull with their weight the fabric down a bit more as you move about :-)

Next stage - close embrace?

Very nice! I'm working on another tango called "Jealousy" which you are probably already familiar with. Maybe you can do a similar thing with this one after i'm finished with it.

Olé Ramzi and girlfrend!

Very nice! If you ever go to Seville, on the square where the statue of Niño Ricardo is, a group dancers come together there in the night and dance all the night the Argentina tango. Very romantic in the warm Sevilla nights.....

RE: Ramzi doing something different.... (in reply to rombsix)

I got to the final round of the official USA Argentine Tango Championship.

They messed up the announcement of our names LOL - my partner is from Chicago, Illinois. I'm still from Music City USA.

We went against several professional couples from NYC, LA, and whatnot, so we did not place, but it was still a really fun experience. I'm really thrilled to have made the finals with a gal that doesn't even live in my state, hence we had ZERO preparation and it was all purely improvised. We stuck with the principle of "less is more" and tried to keep it elegant and clean.

Vamos!

Aaah, Di Sarli with Roberto Rufino (from 15:00 to 18:15 or so) - "Navegante (Vito Dumas)"! So lovely! Nice job Johnnie Walker (which is a pretty cool nickname if you ask me)

Nice way to spend time during a layover

Question on the previous post: is it common for dancers to know how to dance both lead and, erm, whatever you call the role of the person who's not leading ^^? Not knowing much about tango, I sort of thought it was two different things and separated along gender lines.
