When I first started practicing yoga, I mechanically dragged myself through the postures. I was just trying to keep up. Then one day, the practice moved from "surface, automatic" to "interior, organic".When "the practice" became "my practice", I truly fell in love with yoga.
It's the same thing with tango, yes?
When I first started dancing, there was a lot of intellectualization happening. Since then, I've been trying to shift tango down from my brain and up from my feet to my heart. I've been trying to "feel" tango and I think I'm beginning to approach that line between Like and Love.
Rebote and gancho probably have a lot to do with it. I've never had so much fun learning!

It takes a while for it to leave your head. And, not that it loses anything really, but it's like when you reach that comfortable stage with your lover. Still loving and sweet, but maybe not stomach flutterings EVERY time he or she walks into the room.
