Modesto Tango Bulletin, August 5, 2019
Kenny Bell returns to us on Saturday, August 10, to conduct another couple of workshops. Hailing from a prior interest in hip-hop dancing only to become addicted to Tango and go on to place in the World Cup championship as well as become one of the best instructors in the area, we are indeed fortunate to have him as a regular guest instructor. The first workshop, for all levels and beginners particularly encouraged is at 11 am. The second workshop on a continuation level is at 12:30. Cost of the workshops is $15 pp for one, and $25 pp for both classes.
All the slots for private lessons are spoken for this time. If interested in grabbing a private lesson for his next visit here, which will be on August 23 & 24, speak to me on Saturday or contact me at: marymenz44@gmail.com.
