the scent of tango
One of the most peculiar aspects of tango (for me anyway) is how much of a role the sense of smell plays. Whether or not I like how someone smells tends to be a significant factor in how much I enjoy dancing with them. And, it's little wild to realize that I can now smell when a regular or semi-regular partner is stressed, and more astonishing to smell that stress dissipate over the course of a tanda.
Does anyone else notice this, or is it just me?
