This video is for those who can dance Tango and haven’t learned the milonga yet.
It describes in detail how to walk in a milonga, and also, how some of the steps learned can be applied to the music of a milonga. Then, it shows the typical steps and combinations of the milonga like, for example, the step with traspié, the cunita, variations of the Eight accompanied forwards and backwards, and finally a step created by the late Pepito Avellaneda, a famous milonga dancer, who taught me very many things. On the whole, 15 different steps.
