Modesto Tango Bulletin, March 30, 2015

A short video (This Week's Video) catches their summary demonstration.   We are approaching Easter weekend, and the Tango Championship festival at the San Francisco Airport Marriot, so classes on April 4 are cancelled.   The following week, on April 11, Mayumi Fujio  returns with two classes, one for all levels in which beginners are encouraged, at 11 a.m. and the other at a continuation level at 12:30. For those of you looking to buy tango shoes, the Championship festival will be hosting shoe vendors that will offer opportunities to try on and buy shoes of many styles and colors.
