By saying that you reveal your ignorance I meant that you are simply
apparently unaware of much that is going on in the tango world. Now you have
confirmed this impression again. Here you are, whining on tango-l, that
people have not "revealed" enough about a well known dancer like Nito. If
you did your homw work instead of trying to build up and enhance your image
and your ego witb the help of tango-l you would not be asking these
questions. There is no shortcut to knowing just like there is no shortcut to
learning how to dance tango even though you tried to have us believe
otherwise last year, presenting yourself as the glorious exception to all
those who have tediously walked their miles. Speaking of walking... (zipper
across my mouth)
Nito lives in Mar del plata, they take the bus to BA every week to teach
tango there too, and he goes on cruises with Fernanda and Guillermo. He also
travels the world and teaches in many European countries. Moreover they have
a website.
If you cannot see their elegance, it means you are blind. And if you cannot
appreciate them as people it says something about you too.

I have to agree. I took one workshop with Nito and Elba in Boston last
year. I found them to be the most graceful and elegant, most gracious and
respectful, and most understated and most UN-full-of-themselves teachers
I've had the fortune to encounter in the world of tango; and the more I read
about them, the more I see that they are perhaps the couple with the most
rights of any to be full of themselves. They were also the most effective.
The things that they imparted were imparted with ease; I found myself
picking things up I had previously struggled with, or had been a mystery to
me, with a simplicity that at the time I found to be astounding. I still
feel grateful for that one day...which is the reason I feel compelled to
give my opinion here.
