Isn't that the truth. Some people take this dance & themselves way toooo seriously.
Not a pretty sight.

The ballroom dancers I know, most of them don't compete. Some do & enjoy it.
It doesn't intefere with having a good time social dancing. They're nice friendly fun
people that love to dance.

Regarding milongas, I find the tempo, personally, too fast. Kinda relentless. 1 tanda
an evening is plenty for me, I'd like to see more vals...
