What's New

Monday

Bulletin, Nov. 10, 2008

Patrick continued his rotation with serious work on ganchos. He plans to introduce  beginners to cross system Saturday.  Cross system, both partners using the same leg, is unique to tango; other social dances want partners to mirror each other. We hope to see more of you in class as the month progresses.
