Thanks guys for your comments on the video of Ken dancing at the San
Francisco nightclub. I shot the video several years ago in San Francisco.
It was tough converting it to a format suitable for the web. It looks like
it did provoke a lot of discussion.

For your edification and amusement, you may enjoy taking the self-scoring
Argentine tango quiz at https://www.tango-SanFrancisco. It is intended for
beginners -- to help increase their awareness of various issues in Argentine
tango...things like:

Improving one's breath
Parallel and crossed systems.
How to switch from one system to another.
How the follower should react to crossed feet
What to do when executing an ocho as a follower
The purpose of the leader.
The definition of dance frame.
What the frame is used for.
The reason for striving for good balance

Please take the quiz and give your feedback. Did it make you laugh?
Encourage you think about important issues in dancing tango?

I invite your comments.
