Humorous Tango caricatures from "Les Pas Parfaits", Montreal
March 10th 2015
It is just like a fairy tale: There is a group of Tango Enthusiasts in Montreal, Canada. They created a gift for the Tangoworld: It's a homepage with some wonderful
illustrations about a Topic, called "Tango Etiquette“.
Honestly: We all try to take Tango seriously ... but to take it really serious it will help to have a sense of humour ... for to lough in the first step ... and then for to change some habits after ...
I like the humour of this illustrations/caricatures and I hope, You like it too!
