Owing to the fact that this dance is very macho yet sensual and to the fact that the gaucho in the PorteÃ±o bars would practise dancing with each other before having a go at it with the prostitutes (female).... this is quite consummate art.

Note that one of the men in this one is wearing heels

or this competition in Barcelona: the vice champions

more vice champions from Madrid

more vice champions from Badajoz

the champions from Madrid (watch the quick footwork)

These two brothers are having fun... maybe that's why they can put more fun and fantasy into their dancing

Good quality video (I think it's the same as the previous one)

Now that's dancing! A bit too choreographed for me, but I appreciate it. My favorite is to see dancers with these skills and passion dancing spontaneously, playing off each other, letting the music and the moment inspire them. Damn, now I want to go dancing!

I always wanted to learn ballroom dancing, but nobody would ever go with me.

You do need to find a suitable partner to dance with, otherwise it can be tedious. I've had several tango partners over the years, and some would just not let me lead.
