Next Saturday we get another opportunity to take in  Jean-Pierre Sighe's lesson.  Try not to miss it this time. 


We apologize to anyone who showed up at Jacobs last Monday to find it closed.  We will be there this Monday, however.  Looking forward to seeing you all there.

 

In late February we have Eva & Pablo back, practitioners of traditional close embrace milonguero style.  In March we have a return of the Redwood Tango Ensemble.    So much to look forward to - stay tuned.

Until later, Mary
