[Morgan Lindsay]

Hi everyone, 

A big thank you to DJ Marion and the nearly thirty people who danced the night away at Milonga Alegría this past Saturday. I saw lots of smiles on and off the dance floor. Save the date for the next Milonga Alegría on Saturday, March 21 with DJ Jazmine.

You have THREE more opportunities to dance this week at Thursday Practica, Friday class with Dan, and "A Taste of Tango" on Saturday night. And then the next 8 week series of Tuesday Beginner and Intermediate Classes in Ashland start on March 3. All the details below. Please email me at tangowi...@gmail.com if you plan to attend the full Tuesday class series so we know how many to expect. (Of course you can always drop-in as well!)
