TIL that I dance Argentine Tango with Ruth better... when I close my eyes. It's a fundamentally intuitive and semi-improvised dance built on connection and communication and it turns out that, for me at least, the best way to stop trying to visually predict what a partner (I know well enough to "read" visually) is going to do and instead... just move together... is to stop looking at her! Weird, but effective!

(Yes, we're still learning to tango. Slowly.)

Making another attempt at learning to tango, this time at a more-beginner, more-local class. It's still super hard but he makes me question whether I even know how to walk, let alone dance, but I love it so much!
