Don't miss a very special Tango Weekend in San Antonio Friday March 21,
through Sunday March 23rd, 2003
Tango master Marcos Questas & partner Jasmin Lee have graciously agreed to
come to SA between their Dallas and Houston engagements.
All classes except Sunday night practica will be held in the Garden Room of
the Retirement Villa on the Incarnate Word University campus. Directions
below. No partner required. Pay at the door. Reservations are necessary and
can be made by e-mail, [email protected], or leave a message at (866)
841-9139 x1239
All group classes are $15 each. Sunday night guided practica is $10.
We want to stress that this program is pre-designed for Intermediate level
dancers. If you are new to the dance and have not had any lessons before,
or have less than 6 months experience at the Tango, you will not be
comfortable taking these classes. If some of the dancers have trouble we
will try to provide individual aid. However, we will not lower the level
of difficulty for the other dancers, nor will we be able to slow down the
program as designed.
You are an Intermediate level dancer if: You don't feel like a Beginner
anymore; you can lead or follow comfortably and have a nice vocabulary of
tango that allows you to be somewhat flexible on the dance floor; you
understand the connection to the music and your partner is what matters most.
Private Lessons are available (for any level) See below.
