Modesto Tango Bulletin, July 16, 2018

Joaquin Amenabar made us work on our musicality, with singing, walking and marking the musical accents.Many people purchased his book, and some even got him to autograph their newly purchased copy.   The gathering at Carol's house was very pleasant, and our milonga at Fuzio's that evening was small but pleasant.    We continue to work on musicality, which is often a challenge to many people On Sunday, Chooi again returns to Sonora to conduct a couple of classes. We would leave Modesto at 11:30 to get there on time. Let me know if you are interested in attending.
