Milonga Otra Vez! Turn it Up!

Javier Rodriguez y Geraldine Rojas dancing to Biagi's "Flor de Monserrat"...

All good things must come to an end...

Here's one I haven't seen before...Javier Rodriguez y Geraldine Rojas back in 2002. I found out about two years after the fact that they had split up. Javier is married to Andrea Misse and Geraldine is married to Ezequiel Paludi now. Ezequiel had been partnered with Sabrina Masso.

It's just not the same with either couple.

Tango Technique :: The traspie side step in milonga

Here are Javier y Andrea again...demo'ing a milonga...note the traspie side step...from time stamp 0:32 to 0:36



He also leads it right from the get go with Geraldine Rojas in this demo to Biagi's "Flor de Monserrat"


I still have issues leading that...I can lead it "to the beat"...but when I try to lead it traspie, I lose the follower. One of my teachers told me the key is to uplead it...then she has no choice but to move her trailing foot quickly to stay with me...

Any comments?
