They are meeting on Dec 18, but have not yet posted the January schedule. We recommend that you arrange to go to the practica with a practice partner or a group (maybe you can organize this on the 14th). Please check here for schedule and directions.  The practica usually meets in the elevator lobby on the 7th or 8th floors of the building. After you enter through the atrium, turn left for the elevators. Street parking should not be difficult in December and January.

* 2nd Queer Tango outing Friday May 23 7 pm class and milonga to follow at Providence Tango Festival (May 23-26):  Let us know if you want to go and we’ll arrange carpools!  THIS outing replaces our normal Friday night class.  http://providencetango.com/events.html

* 3rd Queer Tango outing Monday May 26 1 pm class on “leaders and followers secrets” with Homer Ladas (we LOVE him!)  at the Providence Tango Festival.

These classes that we have picked out for you are appropriate for your level. It is very inspiring to learn from very advanced professional dancers and they have special ways of understanding and explaining the movements. We are confident you will enjoy and develop in these classes.  Unfortunately the festival is a little expensive. The classes are $30 and the Friday night milonga is $20 and the discounts only kick in if you sign up for several days.

Let’s go dancing! Let’s go together!

We’ll go to the MIT practica on Thursday May 15, 8-11 pm.

Meet at 8:00 in the lobby of Building 36 (black glass thing with an atrium) at 50 Vassar Street in Cambridge.

Street parking around and on Mass Ave. Also try Albany, south of Mass Ave.

Sundays at 7 pm at Spontaneous Celebrations in Jamaica Plain, just one block from the Orange Line Stonybrook Station with plenty of street parking.

If you have any questions, please
