FelipeH's Tango Story

see the speech article in read more...

Allow me to make a joke. Some of you may laugh --
Look at me in my face. You will see --

*Closes eyes*

You are not blind.
You are not silly.
You are not stupid.
You close your eyes when the emotion of the music, or the embrace ____.
THEN you close your eyes.
Not at any moment.
Not at any time.

People who fakes the dance say,

"I feel the tango!"

What tango?

You are feeling nothing. You are faking it.

The feeling you express is inside you

When you make a step, and you are very attentive, very sensitive to her, and you listen to the music.

You embrace the music.

You make love with the music.

When you're connected, you make love to the music ...That is the feeling!!

I cannot say,

"I can teach you how to feel."

No.

Nobody can teach you to feel.

Try not to fake at least.

We know who fakes it.

I can see in a milonga.

And I see, and i watch all of you, because I learn:

You teach me to not to do what you do.

When I look at these people, they are showing to me what they know. They can dance all night in front of me, to see if I'm looking at them - I see because they are faking it.
