Kenny had us work on overturned ochos and sacadas in the second class at the alternative studio. We hope to be back in our regular studio this coming Saturday, and we will continue work on the material covered by Kenny. So hope to see you all at 11 for at Studio V Pilates and Fitness, at 4345 Spyres .

 

We are looking forward to a concert by the Redwood Tango Ensemble at Congregation Beth Shalom on the afternoon of January 13, 2019. The organizer of the concert series plans to make room for us to dance, but whether you dance or not, you will definitely enjoy the music by this group of very popular Bay Area musicians.   

 

Until later, Mary
