Dear dancers,
We just finished an exciting and enlightening weekend of Argentine Tango
workshops with Alberto and Valorie. There will be six more workshops this
coming Thursday-Sunday.
No partner is required for any of the workshops.
We are extending the advance enrollment discounts to anyone who pays in
advance before their workshop. For full class descriptions and a printable
registration form, see the web pages indicated below.
Also, Alberto will give an additional 1-hour basic workshop in Vals Cruzado
(Tango Waltz) for those who weren't able to attend last Sunday's workshop
in Vals, or who got lost with some of the material. We will hold this
during next Sunday's Practica at White Street (7-9pm). The
cost for Practica is $3, and there will be no additional charge for the
Vals workshop.
And two more things...
Come join Alberto, Valorie and the rest of us for dancing on Friday and
Saturday!
