@teropampa Estas en pedo tero! Lo que pasa es que fue tan revolucionario en su momento, tan superior como danza, que finalmente se perdio y se fundio con otras cosas, anteriores y posteriores y hoy en dia no se baila ningun estilo. Pero si que lo habia. Y hay gente que trata de rescatarlo todavia.

Bello. Muy bello.
This is a great testimony to some of the best tango dancing.
The idea of calling this 'tango de salon' dancing, Villa Urquiza style, is unfortunate because it perpetrates the myth that there are styles people should imitate, pledge allegiance to, or denigrate.
This is good dancing at its best, by people who know how to dance the music they are hearing, making judicious use of well known figures in an exhibition mode where their style is highlighted.
Thank you for sharing the material Ney.

A fact that escapes most people is that the so called "styles" in Buenos Aires are a direct consequence of the environment in which the dance takes place.
That includes not only the physical space available but also the accepted dress codes and rules of behavior established by each social group at a given venue.
If we learn and teach how to dance tango, then our style will adapt to the conditions of the dance floor, but we will still be dancing tango.
