San Antonio salseras have a certain look. I've learned to spot it in the clubs.
They are more sophisticated in their dress than the more laid-back Austin
women.

Last night, I spotted a San Antonio girl. She looked like a beginner to me.
I asked her to dance. On the way to the dance floor, I said:
"You're from San Antonio, aren't you."

She turned to me and
said: "Yes, how'd you know?"
"Just a guess," I replied.
She said: “I’m a beginner, so go easy on me.”
I said ok. We began with the basic step, and she was way too stiff and
self-
conscious and contrived, but I could sense her talent.
I said: “Honey, you have the look, and you have the talent, you just need
repetitions. Let me lead you. Relax, take a deep breath, and follow
your hand.”
She did, and we had a good time. I hope to see her again.
