CliveHarrison. Don't worry. I know a teacher who would tell you that after a while when enough money has been made dancing to the incrediply slow music the powers that be will up the Tempo. Then we will need choreography that suits the new Tempo. Myself I do like the slower music. 29BPM is a bit too fast. A competition I was at last week , no Rumba was played faster that 24BPM. There is much more scope for acting of which about 60% of the dance is these days is acting with the slower music...
If I can illistrate a point here. Acting. We have the same in New Vogue here as there is in Latin. If you can imagine we seperate from each other and turn back to face. You could do just that . Or you could look and gesture as if you haven't seen each other for the last six months. The lady might even put her head on your chest. As I say it's all acting today.
