Modesto Tango Bulletin, August 20, 2018

Apologies again for the mix up regarding Kenny's appearance last Saturday. Nonetheless we had a good lesson with a focus on the sacadas that Kenny had given us in his second class last time. THIS WEEK, however, Kenny Bell DOES returns on Saturday, again, one of our most popular instructors. His classes are always fun and instructive, with experience as a milonga DJ, festival instructor and tango competitor, come and take advantage of this young dynamo . On Sunday, August 26  in Sonora, Classes with Chooi Goh at The Dance Castle,  23496 Gold Springs Drive, Columbia 95310. Beginners 1 pm. Intermediate 2:15 pm $10 per class. We car pool up there, car pool gathering at 11:30 a.m. One of our members signed up for the Albuquerque Tango Festival, but by the time she did so, the block of rooms set aside for the festival was all sold out, so she nailed down a room at the same hotel at the regular price, but would like to share it, so, if by chance you had the same happen to you and nailed down a room in another hotel, you might be interested in sharing expenses on a room at the venue hotel. Women only - if interested, get back to me and I will put you in touch.    Until later, Mary Our website: http://ModestoTango.com Our email mailto:ModestoTango@gmail.com Keep track with our on-line calendar  http://sites.google.com/site/modestotango/home/argentinetangoacti Modesto Tango is a non-profit association of tango aficionados dedicated to sharing artistic, cultural and social aspects of Argentine tango.  To unsubscribe: http://groups.google.com/group/Modesto-Tango/subscribe   CALENDAR FOR THE WEEK TUESDAY:  August 21 & 28: .
