Modesto Tango Bulletin, January 28, 2019

Kenny Bell returns to us on Feb. 2 for another couple of workshops. Kenny focuses on technique and comes to us from the HipHop world - He has become one of our most popular guest instructor and gets better all the time, so come and take advantage of the opportunity to work with this young dynamo. On another note,  the dance contest sponsored by KCBP Community Radio, for , February 23rd has been postponed to perhaps April, as the cost of renting the State Theatre was prohibitive, so more information will be posted when a new venue is found and we hear from them again. 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:  Jan. 29, 2019.

Many classes are included, with the best teachers available. You will also be taken to milongas where I am a regular. Of course, not all participants have the same level of engagement with Tango, so other alternatives are offered.    There will also be group outings during the day, between 10:30 am and 2 pm, to explore the city, it's culture, and places relevant to the history of Tango.   In addition to group classes, there will be time for participants to take private lessons.   The itinerary is full, but flexible. Participants are welcome to rest when needed by choosing to skip a class or milonga in order to sleep in late or go to bed early.  I typically organize my trips around March and October every year. The next Buenos Aires tour dates are March 15 to 24, 2019; and then September 27 to October 6. Come to Buenos Aires with us and immerse yourself in the culture of Tango.
