Ever watch the program Blind Dates?  When a couple hit
it off, you can see them imitating the little movements
of the other person, unconciously.

When Carole decided to mirror Mr. P's movements, she was
sending the message "I am interested".  It was the starting
point that leads to the escalation of connections -
physical, musical, emotional.

Good leaders use the same technique to develope the
connections necessary to achieve tango bliss.  They
adapt their leads to the abilities, the styles and the
responses of the followers.

When we respond to our partners, it shows that we are
indeed interested.  From there, the euphoria just
spirals deeper and deeper until that last note hits
the bulls eyes in our hearts.

Now for the cortina:

There probably is.  It is just a little more complicated
to listen and respond to the music, and dance this dance
we call "life". :-)
