Re: Article: "Is Aikido a Martial Art?"

Tango is pretty tough at high levels too. The poster probably meant dance as understood in the vernacular which refers to a series of moves with no particular intent. I guess dance is a lot like Aikido in this respect also - those looking in from the outside often have no idea.

I also seem to remember some of the dancers at the London School of Contemporary Dance talking in a similar fashion about many of the Spring and Summer seminar students. Pretty scathing.
