Sean & Charity introduced beginners to "ochos" and intermediates to "molinetes" with a "lapiz" and "parada". Patrick will fill in for them this Saturday. They will return after Easter. On the first Saturday of the month the option of paying for the month at $10 a week will be available. No class Easter week, so the month will be $30.
In May, a "Tango, First Century"performance will follow a free outdoor milonga, Friday & Saturday, May 15 & 16.
We will try for group tickets for both evenings.
