Here is a video of ENRIQUETA KLEINMAN Y RUB?N HARYMBAT.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfjsLjob0bM
I take it that Ruben knows well what he is doing when he pulls out to his left so often... sometimes in parallel and sometimes crossed etc...
The question is; is Enriqueta enjoying it, or is her back going to give her hell later? Is she compensating for him being outside left, when he is, and enjoying the whole thing without painful consequences?
Of course we would need to ask Enriqueta but perhaps a few of the ladies would hazard
a guess?
If she is twisting her spine and it will hurt, then what?

What I found interesting in this video is that Ruben leads his partner
in a walk to the Cruzada only once during the entire dance. He leads
the cross after Front Ochos and Ocho Cortados, but only once from
the walk. And, of course, he dances no Resolutions.
This si a good exercise for students - to dance an entire song without
a Cruzada or a Resolution.

Keith, many thanks for the interesting observations on Ruben's dance
This sort of analyses is what I'm trying to do while watching Youtube.
By 'resolution' do you mean the steps 7 and 8 of the infamous basic?

Keith,
I actually tried this a few weeks ago - I deliberately did no crosses
all evening - and the followers were lining up :)
It's a great improv exercise

It's easy, and the best way to make sure you know what we're doing and
what's going on with the Argentine tango in and around Buffalo......go

I am curious about 2 things:
1. How did you know the followers were lining up due
to you not going to the cross? I don't doubt that
they were. I'm just curious. Did they like it and
spread the word, for example?
2. Did you find yourself getting to the 2, 3 or 4 step
of the basic and having to think quick to avoid the
cross? I remember when I first did this exercise and
how it opened my mind to, right there, on the spot,
move in a different direction. I remember that it was
a battle at first. Then, it was one of the most
liberating things I've ever learned. I am curious
about what happened with you.
I ask about #2 so that you can let others know just
how it changed your dance. I remember that week.
People said my style changed like night and day.
Dancing became very, very much more fun.
I also found that, when the leader in front of me
started dancing backward, up the line of dance, I
could, easily, put my back to him and protect my
partner. That quickness came straight from this
exercise.
