"Anonymous. With two beats to one bar of music counted 1 2. 1 2. This is how the Tango was meant to be. If you do the Walks Progressive Side Step into a Link to 4/4 timing you will arrive on the Link on 34, it should be 12."
And it would still be off phrase in a 2/4 tango, because 2/4 tango has an element of phrasing that groups pairs of measures. It may not be as strong as your american hernandos hideway type tango, but it's there and a sensitive dancer will pay attention to it.
