Kenny and Verna gave a lesson that involved a different approach to the cross, followed by ochos as well as a Parada.  A recap on this video of the week.  

There will be a practica Tuesday at Urbano, and NO class in two weeks as Kenny and Verna will be at the USA Tango championship competing again.  This event is usually live streamed and a link will be sent as soon as it is released.  So stay tuned.   

Until later, Mary
