A Guy Starting Out in Buenos Aires

So many of the bloggers in Buenos Aires are women, so I'm really enjoying ...where my tango journey begins, because it tells things from the perspective of am inexperienced guy. I enjoyed today's post in particular:

It is harder for a guy who is a relatively new face in a milonga to get good dances. Experience dancers don't look at you unless they have seen you dancing on the floor. The ones who easily accept your cabaceo are normally foreigners or not-so-good dancers.

Right now I don't mind not getting dances any more. I would rather have one or two great tanda a night then dancing 10 tandas. It is about the quality not the quantity. Like in everywhere else, I am building my dancer card one at a time.

Yes, TP has written some wonderful posts on tango and I've been reading his blog for a long time. He's insightful and very devoted to his dance.
