Video of the Week 14 - Tango Lesson with Eray Yuksek

This video is the kind of thing I would like to learn in the new year, as a leader: take simple moves (in this case, the ocho cortado) and learn how to adjust them a little to make them more interesting. I also like that the first variation on this move allows the follower to make whatever adornos she'd like without taking up a lot of floor space or risking getting a stiletto caught in someone's leg.

Also have a look at the video by Oscar & Mary Ann Casas on tangovideoproject.com on the topic of different variations of the ocho cortado. It's really quite good.
