All beginners are alike, each advanced dancer is advanced in his or her own way. When people come to tango (or when tango finds people), they all feel equally helpless, they all discover that they don't know how to walk without loosing their balance and embrace another person without their head getting in the way. They discover that they cannot walk, embrace and listen to the music at the same time. And when they come to their first milonga, they discover that they have first to learn how to LOOK at another person.
