The beginners sometimes do not suspect how much and how often they should be engaged in order to start truly (not in a toy way)) to dance Argentine tango. clubs (as always) conceal this information from them, because after learning it many newcomers will flee ... and they, without knowing this harsh truth of life, grumble for several weeks and months (less often) until they escape in the end .. It would be better if They fled at once, why should they be tormented and tortured by teachers and advanced (who sometimes have to dance with them)? By the way, I try not to waste time on newcomers, because I know that with a probability of 99% - a beginner will run away in a couple of months, in the worst case - a year ... and the quality of the dance with the beginner, below the plinth .. Why do I need it? so I do not understand those who do not refuse (or invites) newcomers .. maybe unless the newcomer is not beautiful, young, slender, sexy (unnecessary- cross out))) feminine)))
and today I just came across a description of how often people dance tango to eventually become advanced (and if they do not aspire to become, then why come here at all?)
Here is one man writing in one closed FB-group:
the first year and a half of the disease was lethargic-steaming once a week for lessons,
in a month three added to 1-2 milongas a week),
then a sharp aggravation began (every day, 2 lessons !!!! + practice or milonga + visiting Maestros) and it lasted for 6 years, and there were gradually added occasional visits ...
the next stage was everyday milongas or practices + master classes with visiting Maestros ... such a sluggish chronicle
and now everything turned into "binges"))) marathon trips, where you are so baffled, that you do not climb any more and for several days (and sometimes even weeks) do not want to return after the return, but in between - one or two favorite milongas a week ,
Another woman writes: "For the first year I pretended that I had not decided yet whether I needed this tango, and even went in for ballroom dancing and participated in competitions, although, of course, I immediately fell in love with the tango and spent 15 hours in it In the second year, everything became serious, the ballroom cast, the milongas went sometimes seven days a week, at least six.In the third year, began to take regular private traders, went to Buenos Aires ... Now everyone has calmed down, this year even sezidila in this year This is the 11th year. That is, do you understand? -2 lessons a week is not enough in any way! We must turn to the bowl where tango..even at the office...
the third woman writes: At work, when I get up to make tea and in the kitchen no one is there, legs involuntarily begin to twist boleo and various other figures ..
And all of these 2 lessons per week (even with the practice of one extra, which in fact is a stumbling blockhead with the same as you are a beginner) is essentially a TIME-FREE TIME !!
and until people understand this, they will not learn to dance tango.
And although I am talented enough to tango and dance, I spent much more time teaching myself ... 15 hours a week is a real figure ...
Therefore, either throw fucking tango, or take it seriously ..
And of course people look funny who, after a couple of months of their "two-time" lessons wander into the "status" milongas and clambering over, clumsily driving the hands of poor women who agreed (for some reason!) To go out with them to the dance floor ...
My advice to women (advanced and even continuing) is to deny these untracked people, let them understand where they got and who (so far) they are, let them learn ... or drop ... and these clumsy dances neither to you (nor to them in the end ) do not benefit.
