[Tango-A] Chicago: Wed Yoga/Tango with Tango Elixir

[Nina]

Ok, Chicago Tangueros, it is time to dance away those winter blues!  
On the north side:  For the Int/ Adv Wed Class-- Don't worry if you don't have any "yoga" experience:  Part I of this class is designed for everybody that is interested in acheiving more strength and flexibility.  You will be amazed at how it improves your tango dancing, and you will feel the results the same night in Part II of our class.  You do not need a partner, but let me know if you are coming on your own and your level (int or adv) so that I can try to even the ratio of leads/follows.  It is recommended to take the entire 4-week session, but if your schedule does not permit for this, drop-in is available.  Those of you using public transport, the Mariposa studio is located conveniently on the CTA Brown Line at Irving Park Stop.  This is very close to the Wed milonga at Barba Yianni!
On the south side:  Milonga Loca is a great place to meet new dancers in a warm, intimate and friendly atmosphere.  All levels class at 8pm, the milonga starts at 9pm.  Hungry?  Bill has been serving up gourmet cheese plates and delicious hot soup this month, and we are always BYOB :)
Still not sure?  Take a look at the complete Tango Elixir Schedule below, contact me with any questions, and I will do my best to accomodate!   (* nina
