Hey guys! this issue is about
1. BEEing the tango you want to see in the world...bzzz
2. Guest instructors, hosts, and DJs at Mar Vista this week
I hope the pictures work this time! Also, welcome to the new community members and congrats on completing Tango 101!
1. BEE the tango...Did you know that when bees return to the hive, they do a special dance? it is called the "Waggle Dance" and it looks just like an ocho!
I love bees. Bees have inspired a new game I would like to invite everybody to play, with the goal of creating lots of Tango Karma. It's called "
BEE the Tango"

As in, "
BEE the Tango you want to see in the world", a phrase coined by our colleague Korey Ireland, creator of the tango-utopic
Stone Soup, (but without the extra E).
So what will you do to embody the karmic potential of bees?
- Start an Erdos Practice?
- Organize a tango music swap?
- Design a cool tango tee shirt, video or other Tango swag? :)
-
Try out a class with a new teacher - at TMV or elsewhere?
- etc.
Whatever it is please tell the
cocreation box :) - it's hungry!
If you want to coordinate people for an event, best way is to do it via the Facebook page.
