heh, it is often said that gypsies adapted and formed the music and dances of the countries where they located into and with their own so for example in Finland (where is vivid and very visible gypsy community) according to this gypsy dance is Tango (and Finnish style of it - Argentinean tango is totally another story
) ... and for sure some of best Finnish tango singers are gypsies and most of gypsies are fantastic tango dancers so does this make tango a gypsy dance? I think that defining true gypsy dance definately can be difficult if their music and dance has been "melted into" music and dance of GP
